Auction House
Chassis #30837S106704, Tuxedo Black over black vinyl. 327/360hp Fuelie, M20 4-speed, WonderBar radio, spinner wheel covers, narrow whitewalls.

Evaluation: Older body-off restoration, represented as matching numbers. Recently detailed engine bay and underbody only show light signs of use. Scratched windshield pillar chrome, and paint loss on the hood grilles but no major issues apparent with the paint, brightwork, or interior. A well-kept, lightly used Fuelie only showing forgivable and mild age.

Bottom Line: RM Sotheby’s sold this Fuelie in Arizona last year for $134,400, a price more appropriate to its age and condition. 200 grand would ordinarily buy a much fresher car although this one has received needed attention since it was acquired a year ago.
