About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Looks great from a short distance but it's no prize up close. The engine bay is complete and looks maintained but it's unrestored and there are cobwebs. Several small scratches on the hood and front fenders. A few blisters at the back of the hood. The metallic paint finish itself, though, is good with even flake. Very good chrome. The top is good other than drying out at the edges of the rear window. There are small cracks in the taillight lenses. Good newer seats. Cloudy original gauges. Lightly worn original dash. Unrestored but tidy underbody. An attractive driver, but no show car.

Market commentary

Although the cobwebs in the engine bay suggest that this car may need a bit of sorting before being road-worthy, it's a solid example with no serious needs and it was bought for barely more than project car money. Like several of the other British sports cars in the sale, this was a bargain.
