Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
According to information from the previous owner, everything worked perfectly with the engine, clutch, gearbox, and brakes. It was also driven home by the current owner, but unfortunately it was then left standing. It has not been started since, but reportedly the engine turns over. It has not been inspected on a lift.
-
Interior condition
Fine interior which has unfortunately been visited by mice, resulting in damage to the door panel on the driver's door. Otherwise, the interior is in fine condition with lovely comfort. Steering wheel, controls, dashboard, and gauges appear to be in good original condition, but have not been tested. Fine headliner.
-
Exterior condition
Fine paint that is now in need of reconditioning. Likewise, the chrome and trim are in fine condition, but the bumpers have become affected by rust. Glass, emblems, and lighting details are in good condition. The wheels and wheel chrome are in fine condition and have good whitewall tires, though their age is unknown. The engine bay is in good condition but needs to be looked over.
-
General condition
Fundamentally a fine example of one of motoring history's design icons, one that with a new owner both can and deserves to stretch its legs on the road again. The American dream is present here, and the car offers the comfort and prestige that the "crème de la crème" of its day could enjoy. A genuine classic and a collector vehicle of significant motoring-history interest.
