in the very early 60's there was a carnival that came to town in in the parking lot of zares department store in north miami beach...it had dare devils that road vintage motorcycles in a sphere and a vintage sports car in a trailer that you could view for .25 cents...I belive the car was boasted as formerly belonging to the duke of windsor it, they had a gallery of photos of him with the car, its was presented as being painted with 60 pounds of solid gold...the interior was that of leopard, exotic furs and solid gold fixtures, the car had a boat tail rear end with a fin and port hole windows...I think is was represented as a custom one of a kind rolls royce...1)what is the history of the car 2)where is it now |

Saw it and touched it myself, knowing alot about cars at a young age at the time, it was something very sweet, vintage and real |

You may of touched it, but the Duke of Windsor never did. Definatly a fake carnie stunt. Nice idea, maybe it belonged to Wallace not him |
