The Phantom III, introduced in 1936, was Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' final prewar model and the only one ever built with a V12 engine until the introduction of the Silver Seraph in 1998. A total of 727 Phantom IIIs were built before World War II put a halt to car production.
This Park Ward-bodied Phantom III (chassis 37EX and later 3AEX37) is one of eight Phantom IIIs shown at the 1935 Olympia Motor Show and the only one shown that was actually fitted with the new 7.3-liter V12 engine. This Sedanca de Ville, with its unique disappearing driving compartment roof, stayed with Rolls-Royce until 1941. Then, during the height of the war, it was transported across the dangerous North Atlantic and sold to Clare Samuels Quinn of Long Island. It has been with its current caretaker's family since 1955.
