Market commentary

Reported sold by RM Auctions at its sale of the Capizzi collection just over a year ago for $93,500 and it has benefited from some cosmetic attention since which has returned it to front line concours condition. It is a highly desirable car, particularly for anyone who has a penchant for Edsels, which goes a long way to supporting this price, as does the exceptiol condition.
