Condition
#1 Concours
World-class. Could compete in the world’s best Concours d'Elegance events.
Excellent paint, chrome and interior. Exquisite wood. Clean and detailed underneath. A proven show car that's still a concours winner and a star at any RROC event. Dead straight body and even gaps. Phenomenal in both its presentation and quipment, it has a presence that few other automobiles do. This was the 1960 Earls Court Motor Show car, one of only seven like this built and a Best in Class winner at Pebble Beach last year.
Market commentary
Sold at Gooding's Pebble Beach auction in 2005 before its restoration for $187,000, then offered by Gooding in Scottsdale in January of this year with a reported high bid of $400,000. It is a magnificent automobile that might run the risk of being pretentious were it not for its innate elegance and style and represents good value for money at this price.
