    If this is the 1947 Rolls for Nubar, back in 1987 it was laying in bad condition at a maryland usa body shop. I had tried to buy it but they were no receptive, a bunch of hillbillies that didn't know what they had! I have pics of it while it was there and explored the car as well. Rodney M.

    Hooper Factory Documents

    I have the original documents from Hooper Factory for this vehicle and many others. There is a hand written letter from the owner to the chief designer expressing his gratitude. Original sketches / drawings of the design, fabric swatches, paint finishes etc etc.....over 120 pages of original paperwork. Please check out my website for any other Hooper Coach Builds of Rolls Royce, Bentley and Daimler. You can download the complete list detailing the chassis #, build # etc. Hooper Coach Builders

    Welcome, but please check your website, the Bentley link goes to the factory website and the Daimler link produces rubbish......

    Chassis WTA62. Ugly? That depends on everybodys taste so not questionable. All Gulbenkian's RR are special

    Indeed: The Sedanca de ville body #9278 by Hooper, design no. 8141/8152 with special front, perhaps should be classified as another dared requirement of his excentric owner, who once used to drive a custom gold and black car powered also by a Rolls-Royce engine,designed as a vintage Hackney carriage.
