Condition 

7

The car is described as well-maintained and in great running condition, used sparingly for evening cruises and Sunday picnics. It has undergone a roadster conversion by Petersen Engineering and has had some servicing and installation of a new hood. However, it has been modified and is not in its original factory condition. Considering the upgrades and history, a rating of 7 seems appropriate.
