Survivor! Original engine, paint, and interior, never restored or rebuilt. Incredible condition for an 82-year-old. This car has never been rained on! Recently appraised at $42,250.00 for the US market. I am the 3rd owner. The second owner purchased the car in 1974.

None of the "upgrades" and conversions normally found:

  • Original engine - never rebuilt
  • Original paint
  • Original mohair interior. Incredible condition for its age.
  • Original 6V electric system
  • Original oil bath air filter
  • Original tube tires (with spare inter-tubes)

Trophies and plaques from car shows included if you want them.

Some parts have been replaced over the years.

All receipts and documentation maintained since the original owner.

"Flaws"

  • There are two small dings on the top of the left rear fender. (Pictured)
  • The paint on the top of the hood is faded. (Pictured)
  • There is a blemish in the center of the trunk lid where the license plate was unfortunately re-located by the original owner. (I put it back to original)
  • There is a turn signal switch installed by the original owner. (Can be easily removed)
  • The paint has shrunk over the years and there are small stress cracks in the paint where the body/bonnet connections are made. (Pictured)
