The motorcar

The pinnacle of the pre-war Rolls-Royce.

The 40/50 Silver Ghost defined Rolls-Royce's reputation as “the best car in the world.” This American-built Springfield example—among the last in right-hand drive—wears a coachbuilt Piccadilly roadster body and carries a documented history stretching back nearly a century. It stands among the rarest cars on the Rolls-Royce 40/50 platform.
