Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

P S, P B, P W, P top, Factory A C, automatic, P seats, dual remote spotlights, Autronic Eye, WonderBar radio, skirts. This olds makes a great first impression but is let down on closer inspection. Windshield and side trim is finely scoured, quarter window frames are pitted, cracked and scratched steering wheel, chassis is covered in old undercoat. Good paint, interior and major chrome. A handsome driver.

Market commentary

Bought here two years ago for $63,130 and it doesnt appear to have anything done to it since other than turning up 259 more miles on the odometer. Has great eye appeal and it obviously caught the bidders attention to the tune of $20,000 or so. Seriously underwater now, the new owner better get plenty of enjoyment out of styling around in it.
