The car underwent a refurbishment in 2025 which included a rebuilt engine, new interior upholstery, and replacement of critical components like the exhaust, fuel system, clutch, suspension, and brakes. However, it is a 1957 model with 48k miles, and the repaint was in 1992, indicating some age and use. The description mentions minor updates like fender mirrors and a Continental spare tire holder, but no significant cosmetic flaws are noted. It falls into the 'Very Good' category due to the extensive refurbishment combined with the car's age.
