Created in Rolls Royce plant on Nightingale Road in Derby, England, this Silver Ghost was placed 'on test' of February 11, 1914. Originally bodies as a landaulette, the vehicle has been rebodied with an original period touring body manufactured by S. P. Broughton & Co., Ltd.
This Ghost, 30 EB, has been extensively toured on a regular basis and is very easy to drive. The vehicle has visited several states in the United States as well as Nova Scotia. It was the last car toured by Rolls Royce hobbyist Millar Newman.
Power comes from a 7428cc six-cylinder engine producing 48 horsepower at 1200 rpm. This engine mated up to a three-speed gearbox. The near silent running of this engine is what led to the 'ghost' moniker early in the model's production. Rolls Royce produced 8,416 Silver Ghosts over a 20-year run, each one an automotive treasure. | |
