Description: Restoration of a 1914 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost (which was converted into this "track-sled" form by Adolphe Kégresse for Nicholas II of Russia in 1916, and later used by Vladimir Lenin) featured at the Gorki Leninskiye manor-museum. (Note: The treads on the Kégresse Track appear to have been inverted in this restoration, as numerous original, historical photographs of Nicholas II of Russia's Automobiles all show the "V" pattern on the treads pointed downwards, rather than upwards like in this restoration).
