1936 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Enclosed Limousine

  • Coachwork by Hooper
  • Chassis Number: 3 AZ 226
  • Engine Number: N 14 M
This Hooper-bodied Phantom III Enclosed Limousine was delivered to its first owner, Sir Walter Rea of London, in January 1937 after its coachwork had been completed. The car was finished in beige and black with grey cloth in the rear passenger compartment and black leather in front, and fitted with a center privacy divider. The Phantom III received UK registration number DGT 369, a plate which it still wears to this day.

Its next recorded owner as of September 1949 was noted as A.E. Satchell Esq., of Cadogan Square, London. The interim history is not known; at some point the Rolls-Royce came to the United States and into the care of Ted bacon of Minden, Nevada.

The car remained in the Bacon collection for many years until recently being donated to Reno's National Auto Museum. The car has received a repaint in the current yellow and black scheme many years ago. The car retains its original matching-numbers engine and many original finishes.
