This amazing Rolls Royce was purchased new from Bentley & Rolls Royce of Beverly Hills by world renowned Otto Heino.   Otto cherished this car and owned it for over twenty years while residing in Ojai, CA.   I am the third owner.   I have owned various Rolls and have been very pleased with this car.

Otto is an internationally acclaimed potter, one of the few potters who can keep a refined shape in a large vessel.   An eye for form and skill of throwing aside, Otto's potting required great strength.  He was able to throw 100 pounds of clay at once !

He received many of the highest distinctions and awards.   His works have been exhibited at the Picasso Museum in France, SF De Young Museum, LACM, NY American Craft Museum, Smithsonian, Boston Museum of Fine Arts amongst others.   He called himself the oldest and richest potter in the world.      If you like art, worth taking a look at his works..

Back to the car which is why you are here.   I just wanted the new owner to recognize and hopefully appreciate the history a bit, as I have.   Now back to the car.

It is a great example of a car that has been driven locally, maintained and enjoyed in it's original state.    The paint is original and best to convey the two tone is like a champagne/soft gold over a dk brown/black.. which changes in the light, day and night.    The interior is in great condition with newly recovered backings of the extra plush rear floor mats and foot rests.   I have restored the back shelf panel and the leather dash, yet rest is very nice.    Wood is very nice w/ some typical spots of fine line stresslines in few areas.

While Otto resided in Ojai he still often serviced the car in Beverly Hills and I still have a few records from him.   In 1999 he had the radiator recored and got a new thermostat installed, also replaced the gas springs.   Back in 2005 Otto had new fuel pump, new injectors and wiring installed.

In 2009 new owner had the car serviced and had fuel distributor rebuilt, replaced spark plugs, new fuel accumulator and retrofitted A/C for R134 charge.

In 2010 all new tires put on at 47,226 miles.

In 2012 the car was serviced at Jim Rickman Motors (very well known in Pasadena) -    In 2013 I have too serviced the car at my local shop and have replaced battery as well.  

Please enjoy the pictures and best of luck with the beautiful Rolls.

Rolls-Royce confirms Wraith convertible for 2015

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Until a few years ago, the Rolls-Royce product portfolio revolved around one model line, and that was the Phantom. But with the launch of the Ghost in 2010, the Goodwood-based automaker is expanding further. As with the Phantom line, a long-wheelbase Ghost ensued, followed by a coupe in the form of the Wraith. And now, as might have been expected, Rolls-Royce has reportedly confirmed development of a new convertible based on the same platform.
The new cabrio will be based closely on the Wraith, only with a convertible roof. Expect the same 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 that powers the Wraith to carry over with the same 624-horsepower output - the highest of any production Rolls-Royce - but with a bit more weight to push, the convertible ought to be a bit more sluggish off the line than the Wraith's 4.4-second 0-60 time.
We can also expect a higher sticker price, but closer to the Wraith's $320,000 MSRP than the Phantom Drophead Coupe's $470k. Whether Rolls opts to call it the Wraith DHC or use another nameplate entirely remains to be seen, but Autocar reports that the new Rolls cabrio won't arrive until 2015, so we've got a little while to go.

Rolls-Royce debuts Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection

Tue, 13 May 2014

For the next act in its Bespoke Collection, Rolls-Royce has found one of its own to celebrate with the Phantom Drophead Coupé Waterspeed Collection, noting the achievements of British land and water record-holder Sir Malcolm Campbell. Like a few other racers of his era in the 1920s and 1930s, Campbell used his Bluebird Motor Company and Bluebird Garage to fund his interest in motorsports. He would break the waterspeed record in 1937 in his Bluebird K3 powered by a Rolls-Royce R engine, traveling 126.33 miles per hour on Italy's Lake Maggiore.
We've seen sketches of what Rolls-Royce intended with the Waterspeed Collection, and the real thing is just as handsome, and the new model includes a number of firsts for the marque. The Maggiore Blue exterior paint is also used for highlights on the engine, the polished wheels, two-tone steering wheel and the dashboard. The tonneau cover normally finished in teak is instead done in hand-finished brushed steel, a closer contrast to the Windchill Grey interior. The Abachi wood veneers have also been bookmatched so that their grain evokes the wake of a speeding boat.
The droptop will be shown first at the Bluebird Garage Cafe in London on the site of the original garage, after which it will get its first wider showing at the Concorso D'Eleganza at Villa D'Este later this month. The press release below has a lot more detail on the finer detailing of the Drophead Coupe Waterspeed, and the images above are worth at least 8,000 words.
