Condition 

7

The car is described as retaining its original engine and has a history file, suggesting it's been maintained. However, being a 1928 model, it's unlikely to be in pristine condition and will likely exhibit some wear. The description doesn't explicitly detail any specific damage, so a 'Very Good' rating seems appropriate, assuming minor wear is present but the car is overall solid and may need minor reconditioning.
