Here's a fairly interesting car, photographed by this writer at the 2004 CCCA Grand Classic in Mt. Olive, NJ. It's a one-off panel brougham on a short wheelbase by Rollson which is unusual enough, but the fact that it was based on the less expensive 160 rather than the more luxurious 180 is interesting. In discussing this over the years with the owner (Kevin Gaffney of NJ, now deceased) we came to the conclusion that since a bare chassis wasn't offered and the entire body and all the interior rear of the windshield was to be scrapped, it made no sense to purchase the 180 just to throw all the additional value in the scrap bin.
