Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Bill Blass Edition Mark V. Lots of scratches and chips in the paint as well as a little rust near the rear window trim. The roof vinyl looks good but could use some cleaning. The brightwork looks OK, with quite a bit of pitting on the mirrors. Fender extensions are warped and cracking. The panel fit is good and even. The interior looks great with the exception of the wear on the driver's seat and door panel. The engine bay shows wear and grime. Underneath shows a lot of wear as well, and the floors have some rust . Not a terrible old land yacht, but will need some major attention before doing anything serious with it.
Market commentary
It's easy to imagine the auctioneer up there trolling desperately for a bid, any bid, on this tired and unattractive boat. At least he got one, and the car went away.
