Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfield , MA.) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce  
Picadilly P1 Roadster from his father, brand new - as a graduation  
gift in 1928.

He drove it up until his death last year.....at the age of 102 !!!

He was the oldest living owner of a car from new. Just thought you'd  
like to see it.

He donated it to a  Springfield  museum after his death.

It has 170,000 miles on it, still runs like a Swiss watch, dead silent  
at any speed and

is in perfect cosmetic condition. (82 years)

Just thought you would find this of interest....
