About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Tidy but largely original engine bay. Good older paint and chrome. Passenger's side door doesn't fit flush with the body. Neither does the driver's side door. Interior is very good and looks restored. Looks mostly original underneath. A straightforward cosmetic redo.

Market commentary

Sold for $47,300 at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2008 and has been trying to recover from that magnanimous price ever since with an appearance at this venue in 2014 where it was bid to $30,000 and now this try where the seller prudently decided to take the hit, and the money. The best thing about this Sportsman are the colors (and the fins) and its condition will hold its own at local cruise-ins.
