Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Dual triple-throat Webers, MSD ignition, Fuchs wheels, Michelin XZX tires, soft plastic rear window, gold brightwork, woodrim steering wheel, radio delete.

Condition

Lightly scratched window glass. Paint coming off the roof panel frame. Dull front vent chrome and bumper plastic. Very clean, straight and clear rear window. Rear bumper rub strip is coming loose on the driver's side. Very good interior with original unrestored gauges. Very clean, lightly used engine bay. A solid older restoration, probably best used on vintage driving events and casual cruises. A European spec soft window Targa that was fully restored and is now starting to show its age.

Market commentary

Bid to $145,000 on the block, closed later with this all-in result.It was sold only five months ago at RM Sotheby's Arizona auction for $137,500 all-in when it was in essentially the same condition as it was presented here. This was a short term flip with little to show except liquidity and a chance to get out while the getting was good.
