Equipment
371/265hp, automatic, wheel covers, whitewalls, fender skirts, white vinyl boot cover, power steering, power brakes, Trans-Portable radio.
Condition
Very good paint with a few chips on the panel edges and front of the hood. The brightwork looks excellent and has very few flaws. Very slightly uneven gaps. The vent windows have some delamination. The interior is very good with slight wear on the driver's seat and door panel. Engine bay could use a good cleaning, as there is some discoloration to the intake. Underneath is very good with no signs of wear and tear. Body-off restored to high standards, just driven quite a bit since.
Market commentary
Sold at the Hershey Auction in 2005 for $88,000, fresh from restoration, then 10 years ago in 2008 at RM Hershey for $75,900 and at RM St. John's in 2014 for $66,000. Its value has only gone down since there, not to mention the evident age of the restoration. It may be satisfying to keep looking for the one prospect who really, really wants it, but it is unlikely to come anywhere close to the pre-sale estimate.
