1930 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Springfield Tourer

This Phantom I open touring car, one of thirty built by Brewster, was first sold to a New York stockbroker. It has the rare rounded fenders and open top as found on the very best Rolls-Royce of the period. It has retained all its original features and made its concours debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. The Phantom I, introduced in 1925 as the New Phantom, was Rolls-Royce's second 40/50 hp model. To differentiate between the two, Rolls-Royce called the new model the New Phantom and renamed the old model the Silver Ghost. New Phantoms were built in Derby in England and in Springfield, Massachusetts.
