Sunbar ◊ 2018-08-21 13:44	^ Knowing little (nothing) of RR models I guess 33/4 could refer to 1933 or 1934 earliest body style, JFS?
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2018-08-21 14:03	Yes. This is a 1925 20hp car:- https://www.classicdriver.com/en/car/rolls-royce/20-hp/1925/433803 This is a 1934 20/25 Sports Saloon Link to "www.ebay.co.uk" Although it must be admitted that many buyers of R-R chassis did commission coachwork that was several years out of date to say the least. -- Last edit: 2018-08-21 14:19:00
