Pre-war motor cars.
The great pre-war Rolls-Royce and Bentley motor cars demand exceptional specialist knowledge and traditional craftsmanship. RRBSA members preserve their engineering, authenticity and distinctive character for future generations.
era
Every component has a history.
Pre-war Rolls-Royce and Bentley motor cars were created in an age of hand-built engineering and individual coachwork. Correct care requires an understanding of how each car was constructed, how it has evolved and which traditional methods must be preserved.
The objective is not simply to make a pre-war motor car work. It is to preserve the engineering, character and craftsmanship that make it historically important.
