The first owner of this car was the Schaeffer family of Schaeffer Pen Company fame. It was later purchased by Bob Bahre. In the mid-1990s, the car was sold to its present owner. Under the new owner's care, the car was treated to a professional restoration, bringing this Fleetwood-bodied Roadster back to its original glory. It was shown at the 2002 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance where it was given a Class Award for both its correctness and superior condition.
The car is finished in a blue-over-blue combination, with a tan top, and correct Tilt Ray headlamps with desirable dual side mounts.
In 2008, this 452 V16 Cadillac was brought to the Gooding & Company auction held in Pebble Beach, CA. It was estimated to sell for $650,000-$850,000. The lot was sold for $693,000, including the buyer's premium.By Daniel Vaughan | Mar 2009
