Information
1928 Rolls-Royce Phantom Experimental I Jarvis Torpedo Cabriolet also known as 17EX. One of four experimental Phantom Is built by Rolls-Royce in the 1920s. All four were clothed by different coach-builders so each was distinctly different. The Rolls-Royce test-team racked up over 4500 miles before selling the car in the fall of 1928.The owner of this unique Rolls-Royce Phantom I was the Indian Maharaja Hari Singh Bahadur, whose family owned over two dozen Rolls-Royces. The car remained in the area for decades and finally passed into the hands of two Italian enthusiasts in 1976. During the 1990s the car was fully restored in Italy by Gianni Penna. Even before the work was completed, the car was acquired by the next owner. By 2004 the restoration was completed, which conveniently coincided with the Rolls-Royce 100th anniversary celebrations.
