Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

4 speed, AM FM, fog lights, wide whitewalls. Mediocre old repaint, sound but aged upholstery, stretched and loose fitting. An aged but sound old car that needs nothing (except a tuneup and mechanical checkout) to be driven and enjoyed but will not be used with any particular pride. Bernie Ecclestone Collection.

Market commentary

This is a rare and distinctive automobile of the highest inherent quality that brought a reasonable price here in London considering its rather neglected condition. The new owner faces the quandary that the cost of the restoration it needs will be so high that it will never be a paying proposition.
