About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Represented as a body-off restoration finished this year, but that's a bit misleading. The paint and brightwork are both very dull and show plenty of blemishes. The engine bay is mostly sound, but there are rusty fasteners and plenty of dust, so in no way does it look recently restored. The body doesn't show any rust. The upholstery is newer and solid, while the rest of the interior is original but holding up well. The doors take a bit of effort to get open. A driver quality SII. Not bad, but it's not a star.

Market commentary

After inspection and before going across the block, this car got a detailing from event sponsors 303 Detailing and it made a huge difference but doesn't go all the way in explaining this very strong price for a fundamentally mediocre car.
