Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, Nitto blackwall radials, AM-FM.

Condition

Fair quality older repaint. Good upholstery with a worn driver's seat. Underbody is clean but not restored. Good chrome. Small dent in the rear bumper and passenger's door trim. Poor quality repro grille bar with draw marks and poor chrome. A decent but not impressive driver.

Market commentary

Good luck with this generously priced E-type. Until it's disassembled and restored it will invite excuses and at this price restoration is out of the question. Drive it for a summer then unload it at whatever it'll bring and be carefree. For once the auction's pre-sale estimate was realistic.
