1929 Rolls Royce Phantom Sedanca de Ville

This was one of the entrants in the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in June 1993 starting at the Village Hotel in Cheadle, Stockport. I couldn't get a programme at this event, but this is a 1929 Rolls Royce Phantom Sedanca de Ville with bodywork by Hooper & Co coachbuilders. The registration number is GJ 7791 and it should have a 7,668cc 6-cylinder inline engine. The Phantom (or Phantom 1 as it is sometimes called to distinguish it from the later Phantom models) was produced between 1925 and 1931 at the Rolls Royce factories in Derby, England, and in Springfield Massachusetts in the USA. The wheels and tyres would lead one to imagine that this is one of the American models.
