Condition
#4 Fair
Has visible flaws to the naked eye. Runs fine, but could use mechanical or cosmetic attention.
Faded and chipped paint covered in dust. It looks original, but it is a repaint and the bonnet is a replacement as well. The brightwork is faded and heavily pitted. The underbody is very oxidized as is the engine compartment. The interior is ratty with torn seat covers, cracked wood and shredded carpets. Put away in the '80s and left to deteriorate. A heap in desperate need of everything and not currently running, but it's a desirable Flat Floor Roadster and it has that barn find mystique.
Market commentary
This is not crazy barn-find money for a dirty, rodent hotel, deteriorated flat floor XKE. It is reasonable money for a dirty, rodent hotel, deteriorated flat floor XKE. It will take every dollar left between this price and the value of a meticulously restored flat floor XKE to make it into the latter, and even that may not be enough.
