Equipment
Wheel covers, narrow whitewalls, Spirit of Ecstasy, Lucas driving lights, pushbutton AM/FM radio, air conditioning, power windows, tables in back, opera mirrors.
Condition
Several bubbles in the creases along the fenders. A few light scratches on the front fenders and the radiator shell. Very good, lightly worn interior. Clean and tidy underneath. Good older paint with light detail scratches. Straight body. Wood is very good. Cosmetically restored a while ago and starting to show some age, but mostly sound.
Market commentary
Crossed the block at Mecum's auction here in 209 with a reported top bid of $80,000. Fast forward seven years and the $15,000 more bid for it amounts to 18.75%, a little over 2.4% per annum and not a bad return (particularly over the period in question) for holding onto it.
