Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Older amateur paint job with small chips throughout. Original bumpers are dented and in need of restoration. Brightwork needs light restoration. Underbody is undercoated with new exhaust. Engine compartment is unrestored, but it has received major mechanical work. Interior has new seat covers. Otherwise an unrestored but clean cabin. Floor mats and dash are in very good original condition. Not fully restored, but has gotten significant attention when necessary and in good driver condition.
Market commentary
This much money should have bought an HF1.6 but its appearance at Auburn could not have been anticipated and the bidders probably didn't have time to consult the Hagerty Price Guide.
