About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good older paint, chrome and interior. The chassis and underbody are dry and surface rusted. There are a few nose stone chips. The engine has been rebuilt but the rest of the engine compartment is old. Modestly cosmetically restored for an Adventurer.

Market commentary

Less than 200 miles have turned over on the odometer since this Adventurer was seen at Mecum’s Seattle auction in 2014 where it was reported bid to $42,000. Despite being bid to only $3,000 more nine years later this result correctly reflects its rarity and condition.
