Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome spoke Borranis, bullet fender mirror, roof side marker lights. Bad fits, superficial repaint, discolored interior, engine looks rebuilt but then installed in a dirty compartment. A horrible, despicable, miserable, mistreated rat given the worst kind of superficial auction treatment.

Market commentary

Its hard to be hard enough on a piece of like this. Apparently someone actually bought it and paid a princely sum in the process, making it the poster car for Buyers Remorse Illustrated. A woeful, bad, mistreated, ugly car that the catalog suggested had the 29,052 miles showing on its odometer, a number that the gritty, oily sludge coating the engine compartment mocks. U G L Y. There was no other even close contender for Oinker of the Week.
