This 1928 Rolls-Royce Springfield Phantom I Riviera Town Car by
Brewster is inarguably one of the most important Pre-War
Rolls-Royces ever made. One of just ten Riviera Town Cars made by
Brewster, this exudes elegance and sophistication. This Town Car
was sent to France in 1935 by Mary Clews Blumenthal, the second
wife of the New York financier. The Riviera Town Car was sent to
their chateau in Grasse, on the Riviera in France. After World War
II, the Rolls returned to the US and has been in several notable
collections. Today, this remains the nicest driving Phantom I we
have ever experienced and can be shown at any concours event
worldwide. In the December 1954 issue of Esquire magazine, the
Riviera was featured in a two-page spread for the issues main
article. In 2010, the Riviera completed the Pebble Beach Tour
D'Elegance and was awarded the Nethercutt Most Elegant award at the
Pebble Beach Concours D'Elegance. Note the rakish windscreen and
how it folds down flat, like a phaeton or roadster. In 2011, this
Riviera was featured and sold at the Gooding & Company Scottsdale
auction for $687,500. 1928 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Riviera Town Car |
Gooding & Company The Rolls presents in very high point concours
condition with many original features such as the rear passenger
compartment and the dashboard and instrumentation. It is absolutely
stunning in person. Please look carefully at the 215 photos
captured in the photo gallery. The 7.7 liter inline six cylinder is
so quiet one believes the engine to have stalled when approaching a
stop. It effortlessly accelerates to 55 mph continuing its whisper
quiet performance. We assume high speed rear end gearing had been
fitted at one point. The suspension, braking and steering are all
excellent and appears as one would expect when new. For more
information and details, please call or text Harry Clark at
1.602.245.7200 or email us at [email protected]. This
Riviera Town Car is available for inspection at our showroom in
Phoenix. We are pleased to coordinate inspections, and we help
coordinate shipping worldwide. We also have financing partners if
you are interested in financing.
