This car was originally intended as a Sedanca de Ville by Frua, but plans were altered for this four-door, fully
convertible body. Frua died before the body was completed, and the car went to several companies that added more or
less successfully to the coach-building progress.
In the end, the English company, Royle Cars Ltd., after a delay of some 20 years, finished what Frua had begun. In 1992
the company succeeded in a superb finish of this most comprehensively equipped motor car which has a length of 6.45
meters. It was the last Rolls Royce Phantom VI motor car to be completed because Rolls Royce had discontinued Phantom
VI production in 1991.
At the time these photos were taken, the price was $2,500,000.
