About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Bloomington Gold Survivor certified. Original paint has quite a few chips and touch ups and is faded a little as well. Brightwork has a lot of scratches and some pitting on the drivers door handle. Engine bay is showing age and grime, a lot of paint peeling. Underneath there is some surface rust on the frame rails, but the exhaust looks newer. Interior is holding up very well. The driver's door panel has a couple of small tears on the bottom. Showing 42,447 believable miles. An unremarkable base model equipment-wise, but the level of preservation is impressive.

Market commentary

As they say, a car is only original once. A car in this condition that has had restoration work ordinarily wouldn't expect to crack 20 grand, but this Bloomington Gold Survivor commanded much stronger money and it deserved to.
