(The power rating is estimated.)
The Silver Ghost was possibly the best car in the world at that time.
When first shown, the car was called "40/50H.P." but the first shown
Silver Ghost became well known for its silver paint job and a >20,000km/12,500mi
non-stop drive so no one wanted to remember the original name.
The Silver Ghost was succeeded by the Phantom I.
The body of this Silver Ghost has no doors, it was made from Honduran mahogany.
