Allen Swift with the impressive age of 102 years, but much more impressive automotive history. Not because he was named as the owner of a Rolls Royce at longer than anyone else in the world, but he also has a story that should be remembered after his death.
In 1928, when Swift live in Springfield, Massachusetts, his father gave a Rolls-Royce Picadilly P1 Roadster as a gift for graduation. Young Swift loves soft-top convertible car his father's administration. He not only likes to ride on a regular basis, but also maintain the vehicles for decades. Two-door vehicle that had undergone a total restoration and repair machinery in 1988.
Allen Swift's love of the car that finally got the attention of the Rolls-Royce. In 1994, the British luxury car manufacturer gave a tribute sculpture 'Spirit of Ecstasy' (symbol of female statues are common at the end of the hood of the cars Rolls-Royce) is made of crystal to Swift. The award was given for a very long time ownership of a Rolls-Royce.
In 2005, Swift has run more than 273,588 vehicle miles recorded on the odometer analogs and he is listed as the oldest and longest car ownership since the car is still new.
Although in the year he died, Swift story does not stop there. Swift donated his favorite car was the Lyman & Merrie Wood Museum of Springfield History on display, plus money worth U.S. $ 1 million to care for her and tell the story of the production of Rolls-Royce in the city of Massachusetts.
Between Springfield and Rolls-Royce's own story closely since 1920 to 1931. Car manufacturers are making as much as 2944 units of vehicles in the city in an attempt to build a plant in the United States.
Currently, Rolls-Royce Picadilly P1 Roadster owned by Swift to be one of the museum's collection of transport is quite prominent.
