About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Reportedly one of 13 of these limousines. Represented with a 2013 repaint and new vinyl roof, radiator, exhaust, front brakes, rockers, quarter panels and hood. Cheap repaint with small cracks all over the place. Uneven gaps. Roof vinyl is a little wavy. Pitted door handles. Surprisingly sound underbody. Dull but sound and complete original interior. Very much a work in progress. Has potential to be a neat, if supremely weird and eccentric, little restored limo.

Market commentary

It's not attractive and it's not particularly cool, but it's very quirky and unusual. A neat car to take to a cruise night or cars and coffee that will elicit tons of questions. Bought here for about what a regular Marathon sedan in this condition would bring.
