About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Raced at Le Mans in 1965 by Ford of France driven by Maurice Trintignant and Guy Ligier. The gearbox failed after 11 laps. Later used by Kar Kraft in development of the J-Car. Gifted by Ford to Dean Jeffries in 1968, bought from his son by the current owner, Dana Mecum. Restored by Harley Cluxton's GTC Mirage with a Shelby engine claimed to have been used at Le Mans in this car. Restored like new.

Market commentary

Dana Mecum not only sells a lot of very good cars, he owns a lot of very good cars, of which this is one. His judgment of what it is worth is definitive and he apparently things it's worth more than this.
