Condition

6

The car presents with a mix of high-quality modifications and some noted imperfections. The extensive refurbishment, including the engine and transmission upgrades, along with the custom chassis work, suggests a significant investment in restoration and performance.

The modifications lean towards performance rather than Concours level restoration.
