Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Black wire wheels. No bumpers. Mostly original, sound and usable. Freshly gone through mechanically after being stored for 35 years. Decent but not sparkling paint, good interior. Steering wheel wrapped in cheap cushy vinyl. Clean but not restored underhood reflecting the recent engine rebuild. New brakes and exhaust.

Market commentary

Sold by Bonhams at Greenwich in June of this year for $188,500 from the estate of the long term owner, this is a good way to make a small fortune out of a large one. The result would suggest the bottom has fallen out of the AC Ace market in three months, which is not the case.
