Equipment
Centerlock chrome wire wheels with AC caps, woodrim steering wheel, Stewart Warner gauges, dash clock, wind wings, rack and pinion steering, grille and trunk guards, original invoices and window sticker documented.
Condition
Very good paint, chrome, and interior with light wrinkling on the driver's side. Recently restored to original colors and very high standards with no significant flaws. Sold in these original colors, then lightly crashed by a service center employee in the late 1960s. Modified in the 1970s with roll bar, 12-quart oil pan, oil cooler, sway bars and Koni shocks, but restored to its original specification within the last couple of years.
Market commentary
Not sold at a $700,000 high bid at Fall Auburn in 2016, when it had Halibrand wheels, side pipes and red paint. It's a fresher and more correct car than it was then, so it certainly deserved more money, but the reported high bid here still seems right and within $10,000 of the low estimate could reasonably been expected to be closed with some give-back from the buyer's premium if there was serious money at the reported high bid.
