The car is described as a 'barn-find' that has been in storage for over half a century. While it has been cleaned up and fitted with new tires, it remains in its 'as stored condition,' suggesting it retains a high degree of originality but likely has some degree of wear and tear from storage. The listing highlights that it is complete and has been in single-family ownership for nearly 90 years, increasing its desirability. However, the need for 'sympathetic clean up' indicates that it's not in pristine condition.
