About Hagerty’s condition ratings
Good repaint, original interior and chrome. Imperfect gaps. Small dents in roof. Cracking filler cap. Solid original engine bay and frame. Strong original car and amazingly preserved with 9,358 miles, but also with less than ideal specs.
Market commentary
This is a snapshot of the 'preservation' phenomenon: sold by B-J at Palm Beach in 2004 for $61,830 with 9,133 miles, then at WestWorld in 2007 for $107,250 and by Auctions America at Auburn Fall last Labor Day weekend for $74,250. The WestWorld bidders paid up for originality while ignoring the base engine and Powerglide.
