The '58 Wells Fargo Limited Convertible. Where is it?

Any information out there on the whereabouts or fate of the '58 Wells Fargo Limited convertible? I've seen the pictures of it-very cool! :TU: Does it still exist? o No: David

 

I don't know where it is but I have a post card with Dale Robertson and the car.

I remember seeing that car offered in a Kruse auction in the late 90's( 98?) . It may be in a museum in Texas,but not sure.

 

I found a picture of it on display in Chicago in 1958! :TU: David

here's more

BUICK (Roadmaster), "The Buick 'Wells Fargo': Built Especially for Dale Robertson": Postcard, 4x6. Front of card is red, with black lettering and "Dale Robertson" signature (printed), and is photograph showing Dale Robertson standing beside three-quarter frontal view of white Buick "Wells Fargo" convertible conversion (based on Roadmaster) with woodgrain side panels and "WELLS FARGO" emblem on panels. Reverse side describes car as "a true Western sportsman's car . . . Completely power-equipped, it has bucket seats covered with hand-tooled leather -- a rifle rack -- gun holsters on the doors to carry Dale's pearl-handled .38 Colt six-shooters -- cowhide carpeting -- and many other custom innovations".
