About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good paint and interior. Good major chrome but scuffed window moldings. Engine compartment is better than new. Underbody is aged. A quality older restoration starting to show its age, but not much use.

Market commentary

Offered at Auctions America's Ft. Lauderdale auction earlier this year where it no-saled on a reported $155,000 bid. The result here in Auburn is representative for an F-bird in this condition. The new owner could even have paid a little more on account of the overdrive 3-speed without the result being unreasonable.
