About this car
Sold on Bring a Trailer on July 29, 2026 for $145,000. The car is in Sequim, WA. Its final price and sale date are recorded here as sold-price data, the same as a dealer's sold car. The full gallery and listing details come from the car's own auction page.
What the photos show
- white paint looks glossy and even all around with straight panels in the outdoor photos, no damage visible, so no repaint cost is suggested now
- gallery photos themselves show the car being repainted back in 1998, so the shiny paint is a documented older repaint, not fresh hidden work, and it still presents well
- chrome bumpers, lights and hubcaps look bright and clean in close-ups with tidy whitewalls, so no re-chrome bill is suggested
- red leather and carpets look excellent with no tears or fading visible in the cabin and rear compartment photos, so no retrim cost is suggested
- black soft top is shown raised, looks taut, clean and well fitted, so no top replacement is suggested
- door jambs and shut lines look clean and rust-free in close-up, so no obvious jamb repair is suggested
- underside and suspension look clean, black and dry with no rust or damage visible, so no obvious underbody bill is suggested
- current engine bay is not clearly shown in the sample, only an older repaint-era engine photo appears, so present engine condition cannot be judged from these photos
- the last sampled photos are paperwork pages rather than the car, including a title that lists the body style as sedan for this roadster, so check the title wording before valuing the paperwork
Money: at the $145,000 sold price the visible car looks genuinely excellent top to bottom, so the money went on condition you can see, with the paperwork quirks worth more than any cosmetic worry
