Equipment
312/270hp E-Code, automatic, porthole hardtop, soft top, fender skirts, wire wheels, whitewalls, power windows, power steering, power brakes, heat and defrost, Town & Country radio.
Condition
From the Belle Meade collection. Some bubbling in the paintwork but it mostly presents very well. Well restored interior. Headliner and door panels are tight. Detailed engine bay. Undercoated chassis presents very well. An attractive but older body-off restoration. Needs to be collected from Auburn, IN.
Market commentary
Another surprisingly high result, especially for a car that has been around the (auction) block a few times. Bid to $34,000 out of the gate, then stalled in anticipation of a closing rush, which transpired with late bids extending the closing for several minutes. It was reported sold at Mecum Anaheim in 2016 for $61,600, at Kissimmee 2017 for $63,250, at Harrisburg in August 2019 for $55,000 and at Las Vegas in October 2019 for $49,500. Those are all fairly consistent results, and why it should suddenly pop to a hammer bid 43% over its last all-in result is unaccountable.
