Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Driving lamp, dual sidemounts. An assembled car utilizing a period Henley style body created by Wilkinson for a PIII chassis and never fitted in period. Older concours restoration showing its age but still very nice. Good paint, interior and chrome with no cracks in the bodywork paint.

Market commentary

A gigantic and long legged motor car impressively restricted to just two occupants; likely an object of veneration at any R R gathering and deservedly so. The PIII V12 is based on R R aircraft principles, and needs aircraft style maintenance, but when it runs right it Runs. At this price tinkering and maintenance are secondary.
