Franklin 147 Saloon Special

About this vehicle:

This amazing American Vintage car in Devon is very rare indeed and after spending it’s early life in the USA it went to Canada to be fully restored, and now there are only 11 left in the world with this particular car being the only one left in europe so if you want your wedding transport to be unique then this Franklin should top the list. 

The engine in the Franklin is actually an aeroplane engine although we are assured your chauffeur will keep strictly to the roads on the way to the ceremony venue, although the Bride may have her head in the clouds !  With it’s wide band whitewall tyres and hickory spoked wheels this vintage car is truly a little bit of American history. 

You will definitely be noticed in this head turning automobile.  Although a rare car we actually have a matching pair of these Franklins if two are required.

Verified Reviews from Past Clients

We were absolutely delighted with the service. Adrian was an excellent driver, and during the journey he shared some interesting and fun facts about the car, which made the experience even more special. He was also very flexible with the timings and route, allowing us to arrive at the perfect moment while our guests were waiting at the reception. The car itself was immaculate; beautifully maintained, pristine, as if it had just come out of the factory. We absolutely recommend both the car and Adrian as the driver. Choosing them was the best decisions to fit our special day perfectly. Thank you so much! Natalie & Oriol
