About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Dull, scratched grille. Slighty dull headlight bezels. Neither door fits flush with the body. Very good paint and chrome. Very good, lightly worn seats. The wood window trim is lightly scratched and has a few tiny gouges. Restored but used underneath. A fully and well restored car done about 10 years ago that looks like it's been used on a few tours and rallies. It's still gorgeous, though, and continued participation in vintage driving events would be perfect for it.

Market commentary

Sold by RM here in 2010 for $137,500. RM sold a similarly equipped and even similarly finished 1960 Aceca Bristol in Monterey 2014 for a whopping $286,000, so there may have been an expectation on the part of the seller to get somewhere near that amount. The Monterey example, however, was a nearly immaculate and fresh restoration rather than a used driver like this one is. The reported high bid was a generous one, and it should have been happily accepted if there was money near it.
