Shel, I am looking at the Rextoys picture sheet that used to come with the models, showing present and future. The Rolls-Royce section is entitled "Rolls-Royce Phantom IV" and pictures 7 different models with 4 versions of one name under each. Here are some quick shots just to refresh your memory. I wish that convertible had made it into production!

Rolls Royce Rex Toys
Hi,
Rex Toys did only four different versions of the PhantomIV.All based on the H.J.Mulliner body.
The Queen Elisabeth version in Royal claret and black
The General Franco in black with white walls
The Princess Margareth in dark blue
The Emir of Kowait in two tones green.
The largest differences bertween the models are the quarter windows and few amenities as handle trunk position and licence plates or glass on the top for the Queen's car.
The convertible Gl Franco,The red/black Duc of Gloucester and the Princess Elisabeth Valentine green have not made.All others ( A Sedanca de ville ??? by exemple)have been offered on eBay as prototype,but vrong.

Sorry,I did a small mistake,the dark blue version is the Duchess of Kent,not the Princess Margareth as I said.
