I have always liked them as well but so far have avoided buying one.

Cousin Frank's brother in law has one for a Business Car for he and his wife since he does property development.He freaked over what the dealer charged him when she took it in to get the wooden window trim redone. He had an entire crew of carpenters that could have done it.

GeorgeRP has one, maybe he can help guide you.

Imagine what a Street Rod one of those would make.

Edit: Since this thread was about Cool Storage, does the RR have a cool storage area for the Grey Poupon and Champagne that we would all expect you to carry?

it was giving me some hell after a teardown of the brake system. turns out one of the pumps had airlocked... all sorted and bleeding properly now!

should be back to roadworthy this weekend after a carb/idle/timing retune!


and yes, it sort of does have storage... of the fold out variety




to totally derail the thread, theres more pics here:

For what the cost of any new car is today, they should all be that nice inside.

And last for a lifetime as well.

that car cost someome the equivalent of ~$120k when it was new.

i think todays s classes and other top range luxury sedans are nearly that nice inside, with real wood or carbon fiber in some

you can always buy one of these classics for the price of a used honda accord, as an alternate cheaper option
