About Hagerty’s condition ratings
Cylinder head and block numbers match each other and the original data plate. Freshly restored with excellent paint, chrome and interior. Overdone underhood with excess chrome, polished cam covers and carb dashpots. Even the suspension arms are chromed.
Market commentary
The cosmetic attention has been carried a little far, but that didn't deter the Paris bidders who appreciated the quality of the workmanship and attention to detail, particularly the impressively flat and carefully matched body panels. Expensive, but an XKE to be proud to own and drive.
