The highly anticipated December 9 auction of The Rolland Collection at the private Rolland Racing Museum in Newbury Park, California, has been postponed due to the fierce wildfires ravaging Southern California in close proximity to the auction venue. Leake Auction Company and Heritage Auctions will again join forces to present the Rolland Collection’s 24 unique and custom exotics and racing cars during Leake’s annual collector car auction, February 23-24 in Oklahoma City.
“Both William Rolland and the two cooperating auction houses all agreed rescheduling the December 9 auction was in the absolute best interests of our bidders,” said Richard Sevenoaks, president of Leake Auction Company. “Although we are disappointed, we are excited to bring these vehicles at our Oklahoma City event. Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected by the wildfires.”
Leake Auction Company will present the Rolland Collection at the all-new Bennett Event Center, 3101 Gordon Cooper Blvd., in Oklahoma City. The celebrated Rolland Collection features a variety of collectible automobiles including Indianapolis racecars (above, photo courtesy of Leake Auctions), midget racecars from the 1950s and custom hot rods.
