About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

NCRS Top Flight and Bloomington Gold certified, part of the 1988 Bloomington Gold Earthquake 88 Special Collection. Tank sticker documented, and Protect-O-Plate included. Smooth paint with a couple of small cracks near the hood and some bubbling near the passenger''s side headlight. The bumpers and brightwork are excellent. The engine compartment is mildly aged and the underbody shows little use. The interior is practically unused. Restored in 1987 and has seen little use since.

Market commentary

Not sold at Mecum Kissimmee 2016 at a high bid of $550,000. One of 80 built, it''s the real deal but doesn''t have much history or anything else going for it other than rarity and performance. The offer last year was a fair one that deserved consideration, but the high bid here was too low for a real L88, even a lightly worn one like this.
