About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good paint over thoroughly filled body. Very good chrome and interior. Orderly engine compartment. Pretty but not exceptional.

Market commentary

The Convertible D is the comfortable Speedster and has been pushing Speedster values for several years. This one was sold at Mecum's Monterey auction in 2012 for $151,050, then at RM's sale of the Don Davis Collection in April 2013 for $137,500. Its condition is not getting better with age, but its price is.
