Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, Michelin tires with red lines, no radio.

Condition

Freshly painted over old paint and a wavy body. Upholstery dyed garish bright red. Bumpers rechromed over waves. The rest is original and very dirty and tired. One owner from new until recently, stored since 1990 and mechnically recommissioned before sale.

Market commentary

The repaint and dyed interior are cosmetic lipstick on an otherwise aged, dirty and neglected C-type that probably would have brough more if it had been left alone. Restored it could be a $200,000 car, but it needs to be completely disassembled, redone in minute detail and carefully reassembled before it reaches that level of perfection and the new owner takes the risk that the E-type market might not hold up as long as it takes to get it done.
