1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Drophead Coupe

This Rolls-Royce Phantom I was originally built in 1929 at the Springfield, Massachusetts, factory for a Mrs. J. Welz of Brooklyn, and it was first fitted with a formal Lonsdale-style limousine body by Brewster. Then, as was common in that era, rather than buying a new car a couple years later, Mrs. Welz had her Phantom re-bodied in 1932 with this Fleetwood-built convertible coupe originally designed for a V-16 Cadillac. At the same time the car was equipped with a Teleoptic rear indicator light and a Trilin combination rear light that are still with the car today. This thoroughly American Rolls-Royce has just been restored by its current owners after 15 years of ownership.
