1913 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Tourer

1911 was the first year that Mercedes used drive shafts instead of chain drive. The car automatically lubricates its steering and universal joints while it is being driven. The body was supplied by Maythorne & Sons, an English coachbuilder. The advanced styling on this car includes front doors and a curved hood. The 7.5-liter four-cylinder engine with a 'T' head produces 50 horsepower.

This car was a chassis when found. The body was designed by Osmond Rivers Designer at Hooper & Company of London. After restoration in 1973, it was entered in the Great Alpine Rally 1913-1973. It was driven all across Europe to the start of the rally. It was the Overall Winner of the Rally. It has since participated in five Transcontinental Rallies, over 20 Glidden Tours as well as most Silver Ghost Association tours. It is still actively driven and has over 110,000 miles since restoration. It reportedly cruises comfortably at 53/58 mph and has a top speed of about 78 mph. It is fitted with a four-speed gearbox and other improvements and is known as a Colonial model Silver Ghost. The current owner has owned the vehicle for 35 years.
