About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Originally sold in Dallas. Formerly part of the Wayne Davis collection. Restored in 2012. Good paint. Panels are straight with very good gaps, but the driver's door is hard to close with chips at the front edge. Scratch on the left front fender. Bumpers and some trim are hazy but other pieces look fresher. Rust showing where exhaust exits bumpers. Interior is generally very good with excellent dash and gauges. Some weather stripping is coming loose. Scratches and delamination on the windshield but the rest of the glass good. Clean chassis and engine. Restored relatively recently, but not to particularly high standards.

Market commentary

Sold at RM Monterey in 2013 for $302,500, then sold at RM Sotheby's Monterey in 2015 in essentially the same condition for $187,000. In 2013, it was expensive. In 2015, it was a bit of a bargain. In 2017, the result is just about right where it should be and something both parties can be happy with, particularly the seller when you consider the price paid two just years ago.
