Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

312/300hp supercharged, 3-speed, overdrive, Town & Country radio, wheel covers, wide whitewalls, skirts, power seat, power windows, Dial-a-Matic power seat.

Condition

Excellent paint, chrome, top and interior. The engine compartment is like new except for some oil mist on the right frame and a little dust where it's hard to reach. Restored in the 1980's but looks like it was done last year.

Market commentary

Sold back in 2004 in the Kruse auction of Woodhead Fords for $165,000, then at Barrett-Jackson in 2007 for an even more impressive $220,000. It comes to market here having been maintained in superb condition since it was restored and it is cheap at this price.
