The Rolls-Royce chassis records reveal the fascinating history of this masterpiece: initially destined as the 1914 Olympia show car with Barker & Co. coachwork, this exceptional vehicle embarked on a transatlantic journey to New York, where the skilled hands of Frederick R Wood left an indelible mark. 

The Wood company, renowned for pioneering electrically powered commercial vehicles, transitioned to crafting commercial chassis with occasional ventures into car bodies. 

Now, this 1914 Rolls-Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost Salamanca, originally commissioned by the well known Rothschild family, will be offered at auction from an esteemed private collection.
