Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

1,089cc/38hp V4, 4-speed, bench seat, fender mirror, halogen headlights, hubcaps, trim rings, whitewalls.

Condition

Indifferent quality but sound old repaint. Good upholstery and interior soft trim. Various edge chips and scrapes. Original door mount outside mirror mounting not repaired. Old but decent body seals; doors close like a vault. Orderly engine compartment, road grimy chassis. A sound, honest, unusual car.

Market commentary

One of the most viewed cars at this auction, largely unrestored and amazing solid for its age. 48hp may not sound like much, but it's 12 more ponies than a Beetle that would cost at least this much with similar history and originality. This is a choice little sedan for a highly reasonable price.
