The 1934 Rolls-Royce model 20/25 in the photo won first place in the People’s Choice Best Car category in 2016. The beautiful dark green Rolls-Royce complete with onboard tool kit is always a favorite with our spectators. The car belongs to Richard and Lynn Coombs of Columbus. It was built for a doctor in London who was a member of Parliament. The Coombs bought it at Coys Auctions in London in 2001.
