Rolls Royce Phantom I Riviera Town Car b by Carbone
Rolls Royce Phantom I Riviera Town Car 1929
To give it its full name, this Rolls Royce Springfield Phantom Riviera Town Brougham was one of ten built by Brewster & Co of Long Island, the Springfield denoting that the chassis had been laid down in Rolls Royce’s American assembly facility. This particular example is remarkable for its brightwork which was all gold plated and complemented by the cane work on the rear doors and the various wooden inlays. These ostentatious details sit very well against the black paintwork and were retained almost untouched when the car was sympathetically restored. The best photos that we have are from a sale of the car a few years ago and the model matches these very well, all that brightwork being very delicately reproduced.
