Painted centerlock wire wheels, whitewalls, dual wing mirrors, Lucas driving lights, banjo steering wheel, heater.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Sound older or possibly original paint with small chips on the right front fender, a long and deep scratch on the left rear fender, chips and cracks around the trunk lid, and several chips around the edges of the driver's door. Door gaps are uneven. Very good, mostly original interior trim other than a small rip in the carpet over the transmission tunnel. Good newer upholstery. Mostly original and remarkably well kept.
Market commentary
This car presents like an average driver quality A Coupe, but the bidders in Dallas recognized its impressive level of preservation and afforded it the kind of money a freshly restored example would normally bring. It may appear to be expensive on the surface, but reasonably reflects its preservation.
