It is reported that Rollston built only one of these cars so I am assuming it is the same one I admired and photographed in Scottsdale, AZ, in January 1999 where it was being offered for sale at auction by the Kruse organization. It did not find a buyer at that venue and so it proceeded to the next Kruse auction at Auburn, IN, in September the same year. There, as lot #1118, it was bid up to $45,000 but the owner(s) did not let it go. This car was painted a dark burgundy color. Kruse said it had been in storage for years. It is featured in a book entitled "Cadillac's of the Past". http://cadillacdb.planeteldorado.com/Dbas_drm/37rlstn.JPG http://cadillacdb.planeteldorado.com/Dbas_ima/dr37tc1.JPG http://cadillacdb.planeteldorado.com/Dbas_ima/dr37tc3.jpg
