A Brooks Monaco auction catalogue from 1997 describes #CRH21998 as ex-Monteverdi Car Collection - the museum of Peter Monteverdi, founder of Monteverdi Automobile and a Swiss Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Ferrari distributor.

Below is a scan from the catalogue where it's described as being painted grey with a beige leather interior:
