Equipment
Chrome wheels, 165R15 tires, two 2 barrel Solexes on 64 1600SC engine. On site the Reutter number read 831724. Good paint, interior and chrome; no Bondo evident. This car has the best door fit experienced in a coons age: perfectly flush and close with imperceptible pressure. The body man must have spent 2 days on each side of the car to achieve this precision.
Market commentary
Where value was concerned the mismatched engine and chassis, of which no secret was made at the auction, was offset by the cars workmanship. This was a superior, if not original, Speedster and the buyer, at the low end of Christies estimate, got a car that will give great driving satisfaction. Money well spent!
