9 Circa 1927 Rolls-Royce Phantom From what I can gather, this is a Rolls-Royce Phantom/Towncar circa 1927. In the late-Twenties, Rolls-Royce produced the chassis and mechanical parts only. A specialist coachbuilder selected by the owner made and fitted the body to the chassis. American Phantoms could be bought with standardised bodies from Brewster & Co which was owned by Rolls-Royce.

12 So, after a great time at the museum, we leave to pick Jenii up from Umina where she had completed an assessment for My Aged Care. Jordan had $5 that GG had given hime and was keen to buy a toy car. He could find nothing under $20.
