1971 Rolls-Royce Phantom VI All-Weather Cabriolet by Frua

This Rolls-Royce Phantom VI is one of two examples outfitted with coachwork by Frua, and it features custom all-weather cabriolet bodywork. Construction on chassis PRH4643 began in 1971 and continued under several owners before it was completed by David A.C. Royle and Co Ltd in 1993 and displayed at that year’s Geneva Motor Show. It was purchased by its current owner in 2017 and shown at the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. It now has 292 miles. The car is finished in Claret with cream pinstriping, and power comes from a 6.2-liter V8 with dual SU carburetors mated to a four-speed automatic transmission.
