Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Automatic, P S, P B, sigl seeking radio, HiWay Hifi, Sure Grip, dual rear antens, spinner wheel covers, wide whitewalls. Retrofit with one of the surviving recalled Bendix fuel injection systems and given a show car restoration. Superb paint, chrome and interior. Looks like it has never been driven, or even run for that matter. Gorgeous.

Market commentary

Reported sold at Dave Rupps Ft. Lauderdale auction in January 2009 for $475,000, $513,000 with commission. Its going to be hard to find that money again, as this appearance indicates. It is, all kidding aside, one of the great Mopars of the Fifties, with a credible history and stunning presentation. It wouldnt be a bad buy at the reported high bid today.
