Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

312 300hp supercharged V8, overdrive 3 speed, chrome wire wheels, Town & Country radio, no P S or P B. Okay paint and chrome, good interior. Good roof. Older paint shows its age with peeling and chipping, but is an excellent car that needs only cosmetic attention and some detailing to be perfect again. No Reserve.

Market commentary

OK, so its an F bird, but its a tired F bird. The bidders chased this F bird right up into the trees and out onto a very small twig. Expect the twig to break. This was a $81,400 F bird when it was sold by Christies at Pebble Beach in 1999 in exactly the same older restored condition and it is no more than a $100K F bird today. Ouch.
