I had seen some pictures of a Gruppe 5 Rodenstock car owned by a fellow named Larens Manders I believe in Holland, that is painted up in the Rodenstock livery. The car has no motor and I believe is being sold as a roller. It could be the "real deal", however I noted a number of non-original modifications that would potentially indicate otherwise (not that I really care one way or the other). There weren't many of these cars to begin with and even fewer still today. It is difficult to know how it morphed over the years. An awful lot of time and money was spent putting the car together. Other than the bad paint job and a hack job on the battery being reloacted inside the car-it was in its original "unmolested" state which is remarkable for one of these cars. I have to believe that someone who attended these hillclimbs has seen the car or a picture of the car. I am convinced that that was what is being used for prior to coming here.
