About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Special order interior color. Factory wheel covers in the trunk. Cleaned up unrestored but complete engine bay with plenty of leaks and dribbles. Presentable repaint over old paint and decent chrome. Lightly wrinkled but quite good original upholstery. Tidy underbody. Arguably a good enough Letter car to enjoy as-is, but it would make for a fairly straightforward restoration.

Market commentary

Sold at the Leake auction in Oklahoma City last February for $64,900, it has added just 41 miles to the odometer since then and other than eleven months and those 41 miles nothing has been done to it. The bidders valued it appropriately here for its preservation, with due reservations for its condition. Restored it would be worth twice as much, but would cost the earth, moon and stars to be restored to show condition.
