Description From a deceased estate; current owner 33 years; originally supplied by Rootes of Piccadilly as a Thrupp & Maberly limousine; rebodied by H Horsefield and Son; engine from a 1933 20/25 Supplied new by Rootes of Piccadilly in 1937, this Rolls-Royce (chassis number GUN5) comes with RREC paperwork confirming that it started out in life as a 25/30 with enclosed limousine coachwork by Thrupp & Maberly and was originally finished in black with the registration number OC 111.
The first owner was a Mr Smith of Stratton House in Mayfair, opposite The Ritz Hotel.
At some point between the 1960s and 1983, the original engine was changed to a 20/25 unit (number J5F) which came from a 1933 Rolls (chassis number GTZ-26, according to RREC records on file).
A buff logbook records three owners between 1947 and 1966.
By 1983 it was owned by a Mr P Walker of Leeds and was still a black limousine, but bills on file to the tune of c.£5,000 imply that it was converted to the current open tour...
