Well, it's not a true Rolls-Royce, of course. The man this cart was created for is on the picture. Not the man who did it, but is is well known too.

Is that Brooks Stevens' Rolls Royce-styled golf cart that he designed for Jackie Gleason?

We don't get as many "at bats" as rookies and pros, so when comes our way, we have to swing away!  :D

BTW, the reason I wasn't entirely sure is, the picture I have of Stevens with the car has a different windshield, with the wiper at the bottom. The bumper and grille have been modified, as well. Maybe the Rolls lawyers came after him...

I guess they did, but that didn't deter Stevens too much, because he just changed for a Mercedes radiator shell it seems.
