Concours restoration
Bonhams
Auction House
Chassis no. 16145947; Engine no. 16860. Dark blue with black fenders and black cloth top over caramel leather. 491/200hp V-16, 3-speed, chrome wire wheels, double-side whitewall tires, dual sidemounts.

Evaluation: Concours restored six years ago, shown only at the 2016 Ault Park Concours and occasionally in local shows. Excellent paint and chrome. Pristine interior and tight-fitting top. Immaculately maintained and still fresh enough to be shown proudly.

Bottom Line: A magnificent and rare automobile with practical and adaptable convertible sedan coachwork. The caliber of its restoration (which according to the catalog text proceeded for an amazing 40 years until finally being realized in 2015) is apparent not only in how it appears but also how well it is holding up. It is just as expensive as it deserves to be in this transaction.
