Equipment
Flat floor, centerlock wire wheels, woodrim steering wheel, later CD stereo.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
An original car. The original paint shows well with minor chips and raised paint bubbles. The brightwork shows light pitting and scratching but retains its shine, and the wire wheels are near perfect. The interior shows wear on the original seats with a large hole in the driver's side bolster. The steering wheel wood is very worn and the window trim is cracking. An unrestored Flat Floor Roadster that's very well preserved despite the years and the 84,103 miles showing.
Market commentary
Given this car's level of preservation and the value premium that comes with it, the reported high bid here has little premium for this example's originality. For reasons unknown to people with feet larger than size nine the appeal of the Flat Floor E-type remains strong.
