Equipment
Chrome dress-up kit underhood, including cross ram intake, hood latch, valve covers, alternator, and brackets. Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels, whitewall tires.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Good paint, chrome and interior but excessively chromed-up underhood. Underbody painted over old undercoat. A tidy and usable older restoration but not the no expense spared restoration the catalog claimed.
Market commentary
Sold post-block by Worldwide at Houston in 2008 for $115,000 as a somewhat tired and older cosmetic restoration, then by RM at Monterey in 2009 for $96,250. At Mecum's Indy auction in 2010 it was sold for $111,300 in essentially the same condition as it appears today, a competent but not impressive cosmetic restoration that was first seen in 1991 [I know, that dates me] at the Seroka auction in West Palm Beach in December 1991 where it brought $42,500. It was fairly fresh then. It isn't fresh any more.
