Okay, some people have asked me to start a dedicated thread to all the unique cars that I come across in my line of work - I've never done any reviews of cars or infact anything before and usually only have my iPhone to hand so the quality of the pictures isn't the best.
I'll update the thread periodically with some of the more interesting cars that I deal with.
First of all is a 1920's Silver Ghost, It's considered to be one of the best Rolls Royces ever.
Sorry for the angle of the photo but the space was tight either side so I couldn't get a better shot, As you can see the paintwork on this example is fairly shoddy - I'll explain why later on.
There is a possibility that we may have the car repainted as to be quite honest white really doesn't suit it.
The car came over from Italy last week where it had been previously owned buy an elderly gentleman who died and his children left it in a barn and didn't run it for 10 years! It's yet to be run but I'm told that it shouldn't need very much doing to it if anything as it's such a robust engine.
The car isn't bad overall but just needs lots of little things doing before sale.
The reservoir in the picture above was in awful condition (Unfortunately I lost the 'before' picture) I spent the best part of 2 hours polishing this piece up and I think it came out fairly well although when I took the picture I hadn't finished hence the smears.
Anyway I'll continue this thread at somepoint with another car that may or may not interest you, I hope its of some interest to someone.
