About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Uncle Tom McCahill's Mechanix Illustrated road test car in August 1963. One owner since 1976, restored in 2012. Represented as the original engine, gearbox and body panels. Excellent older paint, chrome and interior. The underbody is showing age and deficient details like rusty exhaust hangers. The engine compartment is orderly but also aged. An honest, professionally restored Cobra starting its second round of patina.

Market commentary

This Cobra's history is unusually simple, straightforward and uncomplicated. That and its quality older restoration give great confidence in its quality and make this an astute acquisition at this price.
