Description
Very rare original southern California ‘Black License Plate ‘ car and the very collectible LHD model with factory coachwork by H.J Mulliner – 1 of only 27 true Mulliner’s ever built! The car will be sold with its certified factory copies of RR construction and test records from the factory showing an original sales date of 11/5/1963 for delivery to J.S. Inskip Inc Rolls Royce of New York.
In a striking ‘Garnet’ color with all new reupholstered leather interior – 32K original miles & equipped with factory power windows & original air conditioning equipment & rare altimeter & dashboard mounted tachometer by Mulliner to replace the left side cubby box, original AM radio, rear folding picnic tables, white wall tires and rare ‘Kneeling Lady’ mascot. This particular example was owned by its long-time southern California owner from 1968-2010 and is an original ‘Black Plate’ California car since new. It was purchased by only its second owner on 6/3/1968 from ‘Peter Satori Co Ltd’ of Pasadena, CA with documentation available, and owned until sold by his estate to only its third southern California owner in 2010. It was serviced and maintained throughout the years at the renowned independent Rolls Royce specialists ‘Vanderploeg Motors’ and later at ‘Scott Motors’ of West Los Angeles. This car boasts many surprisingly still all original components which are a testament to its low mileage and fastidiously kept and obviously climate controlled storage and garaging. The features still intact include its original leather-wrapped rear leaf springs, small tool box and spare wheel with all its original heavy tools; inspection lamp, spare wheel inflation trap & clamp, tire pump, wheel brace & jack, still unused and in their rightful place in the trunk.
