  • Vice President of the Nethercutt Collection, Cameron Richards, stops by the garage and once again brings with him one this 1930 Rolls Royce Phantom, a car so important, that in its heyday it was paid more to rent than the salaries of the movie stars who shared this Phantom's screen.

      I also had the pleasure to visit there and I just could not leave, lol. There was so much stunning beauty in every direction and restored to a level rarely seen collectively like that, it was just hard to walk away from such dramatic visual appeal. But what catches you by surprise is how this interesting deep appreciation sneaks up on you. If you e been there, you know exactly what I mean. People start out chatting up this and that, then slowly get quite from realizing how obvious it is that there is no way to miss the dramatic effect. It’s simply everywhere you look.

    Allen Swift died in 2005 at the impressive age of 102, but his automotive story is even more remarkable. Not only is the gentleman credited with owning a Rolls-Royce automobile longer than anyone else in the world, but he had the forethought and funds to ensure its future preservation after his death.Dec 27, 2012

    Man, those raked driver compartment windows are COOL... Not as sinister as most old Rolls-Royces. What a crazy car, just the epitome of opulence at that time. I'm surprised it's a six, I would've expected a straight eight when they upgraded to OHV. Man, that is a PRETTY engine. I'm just as impressed with the caning and the beautiful door handles as Jay is. Amazing the difference in car quality and what that means with labor costs so different from what they were. Now we have mass-production down to an incredibly precise science, but the result isn't anywhere near as dramatic or beautiful. Wow.

    Beautifully presented and driven as always! The BEST! These RR cars were all bespoke bodied (especially the Phantoms) and no 2 identical globally. As you know, RR was known for their "magic carpet" quiet ride and "adequate" power reserve: hence the history of RR naming all their cars after slient powers (Ghost, Phantom, Wraith, Cloud, Shadow, Spirit, Seraph, Spectre)--with only Carmargue and Corniche being named otherwise. Added historical note: Charles Sykes (called the hyphen in Rolls-Royce) was the sculptor who did the "flying lady"/Spirit of Exctasy and supposedly the model used for the mascot was his lover...;) Loved every minute of it Jay and company!

    The "power brakes" you mention are derived from two brake servo patents; one designed by Hispano-Suiza and the other by Renault.
    It is a marvellous system and is a pre-cursor to anti-lock brakes. When correctly set up, the brakes are extremely powerful.
    The RR gearbox driven brake servo was used from 1923 until the late 1960s. Not without its issues though! In 1923, an experimental Silver Ghost fitted with the new brake servo system smashed the glass out of its Lucas headlamps at the end of Nightingale Road in Derby - needless to say Rowbotham and Hives, two key figures in RR history, were far from impressed at this ordeal!
    Eventually, the servo was engineered to work beautifully, albeit a complex and over-fussy design. They also have a tendency to fail when oil from the gearbox impregnates the clutch linings of the servo itself.

    This automobile is so outside of my lived world. It's royalty, and I'm as common as they come. Amazing looking.
