Rambling observations on books, history, movies, transit, obsolete technology, baseball, and anything else that crosses my mind.

1932 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental, Pillar-less Saloon -- October 13, 2016
We visited the Blackhawk Museum in June, 2013 to drool over their collection of classic autos. This 1932 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental Pillar-less Saloon has a body designed for the exiled Prince of Nepal by the French firm of Figoni and Falaschi. Figoni and Falaschi usually created coachwork for sports cars.
According to the description, "All vertical lines were changed to a ten-degree slope toward the rear, giving the body the impression of surging power and creating a visibly dynamic profile."
