About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Ex-John Moir. Very good paint and chrome. Small cracks at the back of the right hood vents and around the back of the hatch. Lightly scratched window frames. Dull but presentable original dash. Sound older upholstery. Redone wood. Tiny dent at the front of the driver's side door. Fully documented history and restored years ago at the AC factory in Thames-Ditton.

Market commentary

Sold at RM Hershey in 2014 for $214,500 during the high profile disposition of John Moir's collection. Such highly publicized auctions of highly regarded collections usually bring high water mark prices so this result, with in a 3% margin, is a strong endorsement of this car's quality and the robust market for quality AC Ace and Aceca automobiles.
