Barbara Hutton’s 1933 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Up For Auction

April 24, 2008 | Posted by bLavish as Wheels at 10:00 am | (3) Comments »

A very, very, very, ultra rare 1933 Rolls-Royce Phantom II has just come up for auction, on eBay no less.

Originally built for “Poor Little Rich Girl” Barbara Hutton, this drophead coupe is being offered on eBay with a starting bid of $1.1 million, with no bidders as of yet. Wonder why?…..

The Woolworth Heiress purchased the car, one of two ever made, for her first husband who just so happened to be the Russian Prince Alexis Mdivani. Well, that was a nice match, eh?

Gotta love what you can find on eBay! I just checked today – there are several Rolls Royce Phathoms that are up for bid right now.

I wonder how the original auction fared?

Best wishes,

Barbara
