johnfromstaffs ◊ 2010-10-27 16:45	Like you, I think that this should be better known. The general feel of the car reminded me of the Blue Train Bentley, but I cannot find an example of Gurney Nutting using such a split windscreen on a closed car. Then I thought of Lancefield because the scuttle looks like an Invicta sort of shape, then Corsica for the same reason, but I can't see either of those two being used for a body on a R-R Phantom. I wonder if this is an American or German body?
Junkman ◊ 2010-10-29 14:45	It could be German. Several German coachbuilders held licenses to the Weymann system. then again, it would be unusual for a German clad Roller to sport Lucas headlamps.
