AI Listing Summary

This 1939 Rolls-Royce Wraith is a unique faux cabriolet bodied by Vanvooren, one of only seven Wraiths with this body style and the last car delivered by Vanvooren before WWII. Previously part of the Volante Collection, it boasts a prestigious history, having been owned by notable collectors and winning awards at concours events.
