About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Paint is fair with fading and a number of chips throughout. Chrome is good with one small ding on the driver?s side window trim. Engine bay is clean with a new battery, but the painted surfaces in there are cracked and peeling. Interior is fair with seats showing mild wear and discoloration. Undercarriage has been undercoated and shows mild wear. Car is missing the driver side mirror glass. This is a vehicle that has been recently cleaned up to bring to auction. A tired old car with condition that matches the 108,094 miles on the odometer.

Market commentary

Six figures on the odometer and lots of flaws proved to be sufficient deterrents for this car, and the bidding just never went anywhere. This isn't a rare car (four of them in this sale alone), so potential buyers had no problem taking a quick look at this one and moving on.
