Maybe a pre WW2 Wraith? - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_Wraith_(1938) Looks different from the post war models. -- Last edit: 2017-04-11 06:22:57 |

Anachronistic plate. |

Link to "bringatrailer.com" Pre war, not post imho. Straight waist moulding matches this Hooper limousine body. http://debikirksey.blogspot.co.uk/2010_08_01_archive.html Or what about this? http://www.alamy.com/stock-photo/fld-99.html Or Field Marshall Montgomery's Wraith? -- Last edit: 2017-04-11 17:21:42 |

Please remove 1949, it is wrong. |

This is not 'Unknown', it is a Wraith Limousine, by Park Ward or, my best guess based on the information we currently have, Hooper. |

HUM 5 was issued August 1939 if that helps. I've got a book photo of another Rippon Wraith limousine side-on, which is close to your photo in most respects, but has thin chrome pillar at back edge of rear door, not body colour bodywork and other small differences; the angle of the photo shows a front numberplate but prevents it being read. So I can well believe your photo is a Rippon. But am less convinced that either is the same bodystyle as the one in video. Beltline in video seems taller with shallower cabin and windows, so if it is a Rippon it's a different choice from their catalogue. |
