About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Serviceable repaint, scuffed door handle chrome, sound interior and top. Old undercoat has been given a quick black respray. A Thing to be driven and enjoyed.

Market commentary

This is a Thing of some appeal. It's pretty enough that it won't be embarassing to drive, but it's not so good that grandkids, ice cream cones and wet dogs are intolerable. This is a completely reasonable price to pay for it.
