Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Fair older repaint over filler, rust in fender tops, no windshield washer nozzles, brush painted Fuchs wheels. Tired and beat. Claimed 2 owners, shows 63,386 miles most of them apparently on back roads in winter under bright bleaching sun.

Market commentary

Its distressing to see a poor car like this bring a big price. Some nascent enthusiast has bought a legacy of problems, none of which were invisible, and will be buried in the slug by the time it enters his (or her) garage, never to upgrade or enjoy the camaraderie of enthusiasts. Seek advice, ask questions, consult reference materials, sit on your paddle when uncertain. $6 Large isnt a lot in absolute terms (12,000 mile service on a Ferrari 360, for instance) but flushed down the toilet it assumes outsized significance. This $6,784 was flushed.
