Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Twin cam Lotus Ford engine, two Webers. Chrome suspension. Crack in nose, new unpainted engine cover. Well restored to as new condition or better now a little neglected. More show car than go car.

Market commentary

Attracted a great deal of attention not least because it was the center of an insurance fraud of six figure proportions and was sold on behalf of the insurance company. Harry Mathews said a few thousand dollars of cleanup and prep will make this a $40K car.
