Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Dual quads, automatic, power steering, porthole hardtop only, Town & Country radio, skirts, chrome wire wheels, whitewalls.

Condition

Mostly original with a flawed old repaint over old paint Surface rust under the paint on the cowl, cracked on the right front fender Good interior but dull gauges with fogged lenses Original underbody Once owned by country music artist Jim Owen

Market commentary

A desirable but also tired car that represents a sound value for the new owner. Theres no premium in the price for Jim Owens ownership in this case.
