Condition
7
The car has undergone a comprehensive restoration in 1984, and while the interior has been updated and the engine rebuilt, the age of the restoration and the fact that it's a 75-year-old car suggests it would be in Very Good condition with potential for minor wear. The odometer reading is not verified, which also impacts a pristine rating.
