Nice car but two minor corrections. The 40/50hp, commonly called the Silver Ghost, was presented to the public in 1906 but the first was delivered in 1907. The engine is a side valve design so does not have overhead cams. Overhead valves, on the large hp engines, were first introduced in 1925 on the successor, the New Phantom, which still had the camshaft in the conventional position.

Founded in 1904, not 1906. They built several models - in very small numbers - prior to the 40/50 hp, including a 10 hp 2 cylinder, 15 hp 3 cylinder, 20 hp 4 cylinder, and 30 hp 6 cylinder.

I think it took a longtime before Royalty bought the RR, unless you consider the maharajas Royal.

Yes, the British royal family had Daimlers until the 1940s. I think Edward VII had a de Dion Bouton also.

Correct tires as well, many I've seen didn't have period correct tires on them. I suppose that being they don't like the color they actually were and just don't look as good as black tires. I also used to think that white or gray tires weren't that nice but now I think they ought to have them because that's what they really were.

I'm sorry but that old boy is a bit of a hack. Some thing tells me the paint would of been full of chips once it was done like sliding that gear box up the rails or building a new body with nothing covering other parts
