About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Built as the spare car by Bud Moore, never raced during 1971. Later raced by Wendell Scott in IMSA GT, then parked. Restored in 1991 and historic raced since, winning the 2015 Monterey Historics Trans Am race with Jim Click behind the wheel. Good paint. Race ready and tidy.

Market commentary

This is the essential Trans Am Mustang in Moore''s bright yellow, S.S. Jacobs livery and race number 16. There must be an entire fleet of them, but this one is real. It failed to excite the Portola Plaza bidders, but that may be attributable to not having an in-period record with Moore''s team and its link to the generally lackluster 1971 Trans Am season.
