1926 ROLLS-ROYCE SILVER GHOST PICCADILLY ROADSTER
This beautifully presented Springfield Rolls-Royce is believed to be one of approximately 79 American Silver Ghosts built with the sporting Piccadilly Roadster coachwork from new. Originally manufactured in June 1926, this Silver Ghost was used for several years by the factory as a development car. Such attention ensured the Roadster was consistently fitted with the latest technical developments, and as reported by a later owner who was also a Rolls-Royce Owner's Club president, the car was factory-fitted with a number of components from the forthcoming Phantom model.
