CoachBuilt: Franay Carrossier Paris
Documentation: French certificat D ´immatriculation, contrat vente

Franay was the most important coachbuilder for the silver wraith outside England, he was appointed to supply royal houses, maharadjahs and aristocracy . From RR Silver Wraith he only built 10 units, 6 short base and balance in long. The short one´s were 3 drophead coupe, a touring limousine ( the unit present), a limousine and a sedanca de ville ( for Princ Talal al Saoud from South Arabia). For the long base he built 3 sedanca de ville (for Aristotle Onassis, Princ Saad of South Arabia, Princ Mohamed Saoud) and a limousine de ville.
Franay also worked with Hispano-Suiza, Voisin et Delage, Duesenberg, Packard, Delahaye , Talbot and Bentley.
The most expensive and exclusive car from Franay was the 1947 Bentley Mark VI cabriolet which is now widely considered to be the most unique and valuable Bentley on the planet.
Sold in 2006 by $1728000, evaluated now in more than $2500000.
What we are presenting now is the unique opportunity to purchase the really only one Touring Limousine RR Silver Wraith by Franay. Which is an example of high craftsmanship.

Mecanical the car is running smoothly following all original specification.
