    Here is the same car, after a thorough restoration, participating in the Pebble Beach Tour of 2006. Unfortunately the car broke down during the Tour and was withdrawn from the Concours itself. It will be re-invited for the 2007 concours. The second shot in post one shows the car a couple of years ago, while being exhibited at the Blackhawk Collection grounds in Pebble Beach.

    A very special but cool looking car... I assume the headlights are fitted behind those removable panels?

    The front looks weird but very nice at the same time. I think you either hate or love this car: there's no in-between.

    Lots of cars are like that. This one is indeed quite cool.

    IMO, this is the most beautiful Rolls Royce besides the 2000-2002 Rolls Royce Corniche. I love the weird shapes and curves of the car.

    I think the restored version shown in henk4's post is the definition of style and class (at least, for a material possesion )
