Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Delivered new in Switzerland but came to the U.S. in 1980. Maintained but tired engine bay with black paint peeling off the valve covers, lots of scratches on the air cleaner and a big rip with insulation coming out on the underside of the hood. Fairly dull original chrome. Sound older repaint. Oxidation in the wheel centers. Four big, deep scratches on the right front fender. Big crack in the left rear fender. Front seats were replaced a while ago and are lightly worn, while the back seats are original and show light cracking. The rest of the interior is original and quite good. A strong candidate for a straightforward restoration.
Market commentary
The Dallas bidders were astute to recognize this as a fairly worn driver quality car and offer fairly worn driver money for it. There's no reason for it not to have sold at this price which was ample and maybe a little bit more for its condition.
