Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Represented as matching numbers engine. Older-looking paint with a few edge chips, and a small masking error on the black headlamp surround. The center console lid is misaligned but the rest of the interior is good and mostly restored. The rubber between the nose and the front fenders does not fill the gap and adhesive is visible. The engine compartment is neat, tidy and restored. The exterior brightwork and vinyl top are in good condition. A real deal Superbird is always interesting, but this one's apparently recent restoration had a few corners cut.
Market commentary
This car was at Mecum Indy last year presented as an "unrestored barn find" and hammered not sold at a $90,000 high bid. Given that that auction was only last May, it's no wonder that corners were cut on its restoration. The bidders weren't fooled and rushing to get it to Kissimmee didn't pay off.
