1961 Phantom V James Young PV55 Two door Touring SaloonThe
first of only two ever built#5LBV69 An
especially elegant creation first supplied to a Mr. Frank J. Gill
of Millbrook, New York on July 9, 1961, this work of art has
enjoyed the stewardship of several noted automobile connoisseurs of
the era including Mr. William Payson of Southport, Connecticut
(1970) Sam Scheer of New York and Palm Beach, Florida (1972), Dr.
Erle Heath of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Miami, Florida (1973)
and Ray Lutgert of Naples, Florida, (1976). In the late
1980s it was supplied to the noted Mr. B. Laleman of Gent, Belgium
and remained with him until late 2006 when it was supplied by the
noted Swiss dealer Lukas Huni to the Blackhawk Collection of
California for an important collector client. The
extensive 26 years of service files accompany the
automobile. It was acquired by ourselves in 2019 in
acceptable order but cosmetically somewhat weathered. It has since
been upgraded and the mechanical aspects thoroughly prepared to our
standards. This remarkable performer is available for
inspection and demonstration at your convenience.
