I have had the pleasure of meeting John Athan that built the roadster for the movie Loving you, Saw the roadster then at NHRA ,Now beleive its in a musem , Plus have two signed pictures of Elvis in the roadster.also a signed picture of Ed Iskerderian in his first T bodied roadster,Met & went out for a meal in 2003, plus tour of the factory, But the signed pic of Elvis in the A roadster rates the best,

Dunno if it's true but I've read that Elvis wanted to buy the roadster but Athan wouldn't sell.

I have a good friend who restored a 1956 Mark II Lincoln, that belonged to the Isley Brothers. It was reported to him, that Elvis smoked pot in the back seat, BUT no pictures.
