Chassis No. – 263P152693

Finished in bright red with contrasting black wings and a black fabric hood, this striking Henley-bodied Roadster was created in homage to the flamboyant luxury cars of the 1930s, carrying Rolls-Royce badging and trim to complete its imposing presentation.

The vendor informs us that the car has benefitted from a restoration, with accompanying photographs documenting the work undertaken, including bare body preparation, repaint, and interior trimming. The two-tone cabin is upholstered in cream and black, complemented by a wood-rimmed steering wheel, custom dashboard with period-style instrumentation, and a bench seat arrangement. Power comes from an American V8 with Edelbrock carburettor, providing strong and dependable performance, mated to an automatic transmission.

This Henley Roadster combines show-stopping looks with the ease of a proven drivetrain, making it suitable as an attention-grabbing weekend cruiser or as a unique centrepiece within any collection. A history file, US title paperwork, UK registration documents, and customs entry records are included.

  • Presented in red with contrasting wings and hood

  • Powered by an American V8 with automatic transmission

  • Restored and accompanied by photographic record

  • Offered without reserve
