Stunning 1923 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost Springfield Piccadilly RoadsterCoachwork by Rolls-Royce Custom Coach WorksChassis no. 318XHEngine no. 21-143This 1923 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost Springfield Piccadilly Roadster is an absolutely stunning example and an a very special car just out of a collection. Rolls Royce Custom Coachwork #583 and Chassis #318XH. Red with black interior, it's undergone complete mechanical and cosmetic rebuild to concourse standards. Springfield Silver Ghosts were built from 1921 to 1926. The car offered here is a 1923 which is still very much like the British Ghosts of the same era. It is right drive, 4-speed, with a 12-volt electrical system and rides on 23-inch wheels with 33 x 5 tires. Many enthusiasts prefer these early Springfield cars because of their more sporty feeling and lighter steering with the skinny tires. The car has been restored to the highest standard by Jim Hery of Parkesburg, Pennsylvania, with mechanical work completed by Bill Cooke of the Vintage Garage. The restoration was so successful and the car has won many awards, including the Best in Concours Class at the 2005 Rolls-Royce National Meet in Greenwich, Connecticut. The Piccadilly body is one of the most highly regarded body styles ever placed on the Ghost chassis because of its nearly perfect body lines. There is not any aspect of the style that could be improved. A fantastic car at a bargain price. Price: $289,500 ​
