"A hefty machine to maneuver, but the automatic transmission and power steering make the job easier—offering a driving feel not unlike that of a contemporary American car."

Beschreibung

Ordered in 1953 by Bourden Tube Inc. in Newton, CT, which subsequently canceled the purchase. The importing dealer, Inskip Rolls-Royce in New York, therefore kept the car as a demonstrator and for its own use. A few years later it was sold to California, where it became part of the high life, complete with film appearances and being repainted pink.

The car’s American-era history is a fascinating read—an extensive binder contains a wealth of documentation, some from that period but mostly from its time in Sweden. It was imported from the USA to Sweden in 1989 and registered for road use in February 1990. An owner in Kristianstad drove the car for 28 years before Nisse Nilsson of Autoseum in Simrishamn acquired it for his collection in 2018. Today, it is being sold by Nilsson’s estate, as the car had been privately owned.

The most recent approved inspection was carried out on July 6, 2016, and the vehicle is therefore exempt from further inspections, having been in a valid inspection period when the new regulations came into effect on April 20, 2018.

Beurteilung Fahrzeugzustand

  • Zustand technisch:

    The big six-cylinder engine starts easily when warm but tends to need some starting fluid for cold starts. The GM automatic transmission engages firmly but shifts well. The engine temperature tends to rise; during the test drive and filming, we paused a couple of times to let the engine and coolant cool down.

  • Zustand Interieur:

    The rear seat appears to be original, while the front bench seems to have been reupholstered. The walnut trim is cracked in the center and along the lower edge of the dashboard. The wood panel near the windshield is dry, as are the door handles, where the finish has worn off.

  • Zustand Exterieur:

    A letter from the factory states that upon delivery the car was finished in blue/cream white with a beige leather interior. Other documents indicate that it was later painted pink and then white. Today it wears a presentable paintjob, albeit executed to a simpler standard. White was—and remains—a popular colour in regions such as California and the Middle East. The car is fitted with older bias-ply tyres that still have good tread.

  • Zustand gesamt:

    A luxury giant of its time and an important status symbol for those with such needs, yet also a car featuring innovative technology for its era. The auction vehicle is essentially a roadworthy piece ready for active use without the demands of show condition, though it does require a new battery and a basic service.

Fakten zum Modell

Among the documentation is a research report entitled “Tracking down the siblings of HJ Mulliner Sports Touring Limousine ELW5 body style 7348.” It’s a valuable piece of the puzzle, revealing that only 20 of these were ever built—and just two in left-hand-drive. Should you wish to undertake a future restoration back to factory specification, there is ample information and expertise available to guide the process.

Auktionsinfo

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
