Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Not a single panel fits quite right. Paint is decent. Lightly scratched window glass. Paint is a bit gloppy around the door hinges. Very good newer upholstery, but the paint on the dash is less than perfect. Tidy, cleaned up engine bay. Slightly dirty underbody. Tatras are quirky, interesting and rare, but this one has imperfections that are hard to ignore.
Market commentary
Sold at the Bonhams Simeone Museum sale last Fall for $104,500 and at Leake Tulsa earlier this year for $75,000. All of its recent auction results have been expensive, but the Leake transaction was the most appropriate. Although it's been cleaned up a bit since then, it still has needs and the new owner here has already sunk a lot into it.
