About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Totally unrestored but tidy and maintained engine bay and underbody. A little bit of oxidation underneath but nothing bad. Dull but presentable original paint and chrome. Excellent tight-fitting original top. Very good original interior. A genuine R-Code convertible with just the right amount of patina. Definitely charming as it sits, and way too good to restore.

Market commentary

Sold for $115,500 in Kissimmee this year and turned here for a healthy premium that validates some bottom-feeders' search through the consignments of big auctions for the cars others overlook. It can be done, but it more often than not results in misjudging bidders' willingness to pay more than before. No matter, this is a whopping great Galaxie Sunliner and it is not unreasonably priced.
