1924 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Riviera Salamanca Cabriolet Permanent

  • Coachwork by Holbrook
  • Chassis Number: 273KF
This Silver Ghost was bought new by silent movie star Harold Lloyd in 1924 and remained with him at his Beverly Hills estate until his death 50 years later. Mr. Lloyd owned two Silver Ghosts but neither was driven very far; this one has less than 19,000 miles on the odometer. This Ghost is totally original with the exception of the leather in the driver's compartment, which was replaced by Lloyd after it was damaged by water when his garage roof leaked. During Lloyd's ownership the car was featured in the 1954 Oscar-winning film Sabrina, directed by Billy Wilder and starring Audrey Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart and William Holden. In 1975 it was acquired by a second owner who garaged it until 2014 when it was bought by a new owner.

The car is powered by a 453 cubic inch 6-cylinder engine developing 40/50 horsepower. This Ghost has never been restored. The odometer indicates 18,900 original miles.
