1925 Rolls-Royce Phantom 1 Jonckheere Coupe - 1 - Jalopnik

Where can I find a source to build a kit car of this? Any idea?

Thanks!

Although it is IMO the single most stunning Rolls ever built, it's safe to say that no one offers a kit and that the Petersen museum will not like you if you pull out a measuring tape on that car.

It has an interesting history.

Not exactly true, two companies over the years have built them.
In fact one build slot popped up on eBay about three months ago from a know midewst hot rod shop that had somehow acquired some molds.

The one completed car, that I know is not shown publicly, I have seen allegedly cost the owner ~155K to build.

Round Door Rolls Royce

Just joined this group and saw your question, Formula Automotive in Red Oak, TX Home Page has built a recreation of the Round Door Rolls Royce. Probably not sold as a kit but check it out.

In reply about Super Replicas, I have first hand info on them and do not under any circumstances send them money. I will be happy to supply more info.
