1914 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Tourer

This car was originally sold to British automaker F. W. Berwick. After WWII the car was brought to America where it had various long-term owners.

Between 2000 and 2005 the car was restored and taken on many tours around the globe. In 2011 it then passed on to longtime Rolls-Royce Owners Club stalwart Frank Allocca who had the car re-restored.

The car is powered a 7428 cc six-cylinder engine developing 50 horsepower. The current owner acquired the car in 2017 and had the car updated by a Silver Ghost expert. During the past year the car has completed the 2,700 mile Red Rock Rendezvous Tour around the Pacific Northwest and also the 2018 Whooly Ghost Tour and Smitten with the Mitten Tour around the state of Michigan.

This 1914 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, chassis 35 PB, was factory test driven on April 23, 1914. This is regarded as its 'birth date.'

It is fitted with a Landaulette body by H.J. Mulliner and delivered new to Capt. & Mrs. Robert Glen in Glasgow, Scotland. Years later, it was sent to New York where its old body was removed and it was fitted with a rumble seat Coupe' by Locke & Company.

The car underwent a complete chassis restoration and was re-bodied with a replica touring body by noted British engineer David Hemmings over a 4.5-year period. Note the unique jump seats and brandy decanters with monogrammed glasses.

The car has completed a tour from England to the South of France to the summer house of Sir Henry Royce, and back to England, a distance of 1,500 miles. The car also completed 1,200 mile tour of Northern England and the Scottish Borders, in the United Kingdom.

Chassis number 35PB sailed the high seas from the United Kingdom to rejoin the Sierra Collection in September of 2005.

In 2009, this 40/50 HP Silver Ghost Tourer was offered for sale at the Gooding & Company auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was estimated to sell for $600,000 - $750,000. As the gavel came down for the third and final time, the lot had failed to find a bidder willing to satisfy its reserve. The lot was left unsold.
