Condition
Represented as the matching numbers engine. Long paint crack on the hood. The paint on the hood is a shade off from the rest of the car. The doors don't quite fit flush with the body. The tires are old. The restored interior is excellent other than a lightly worn original steering wheel. A well equipped car that's more than good enough to drive and enjoy, but not perfect.
Market commentary
Not sold at Mecum Seattle in 2014 for $40,000, then sold at Barrett-Jackson WestWorld in 2015 for $40,700 and no-saled at Mecum Dallas last year at a $32,500 high bid, which was arguably a more than fair offer for a car in this condition. Holding out for more paid off big time, though, and the seller should be thrilled. The new owner, not so much having paid a record-setting price for a flawed Bonneville.
