It was 1925, and the fabled Silver Ghost, which had been launched in 1906, was being retired. After seven years of experiment and test, the 40/50 horsepower six-cylinder Phantom chassis was introduced. The New Phantom, as it was called, received the Phantom I designation retrospectively when the Phantom II appeared on the scene in 1930. From 1926 until as late a 1931, the American version of the Phantom I was produced in Springfield, Massachusetts. Of the 3,340 Phantom I's produced, 1,241 were built stateside, including this car which wears a Regent Convertible Coupe body by Brewster; one of 22 produced. It has just 22,000 miles from new and remains in original, unrestored condition. It was delivered new on November 19, 1929 to Charles F. Glore, a Chicago banker, who also served as a director of the Studebaker Corporation.
