About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Perfect top. Like new paint and brightwork. Excellent interior. In storage from 1966 to 2011 with an unresolved engine problem. Then restored in 2012 and reportedly driven less than 50 miles since. Now having 56,255 miles from new, It is like new and has abolutely nothing to pick on.

Market commentary

Expensive but not excessive for a top-notch car. Collectors of high-end sports cars seek and are willing to pay for the best, as transactions like this show.
