About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Old and neglected restoration. Dull paint, pitted chrome and peeling grille shell, hood fits poorly, cracking wood trim and worn seats. An interesting piece of history but far from show ready.

Market commentary

The Elvis factor pushed this about $100,000 past high estimate; testament to the Elvis celebrity spiff being alive and well. The other PV in this sale (Lot 224) was a much better car for $150,000 less. Probably bound for another museum.
