This Silver Cloud III is considered the prelude to the Silver Shadow models of the mid-1960s. It featured increased compression, for additional power allowing for options such as air conditioning. It carried a lower radiator and four headlights. This example carries drophead coachwork by H.J. Mulliner.

This is one of just 25 left-hand drive models produced in 1963. It is finished in Dusk Grey, with scarlet hides and shows just as it was ordered by Mrs. Axel Borstrom, of Stockholm, Sweden. It sports a series of unique features, such as a right front headrest, special veneers to match a Bentley Flying Spur, a dashboard mounted tachometer, an opening rear armrest and more.

A few years later, the now divorced Mrs. Borstrom sold the car to a noted Hollywood personality and the careful ownership since is known. It was shown at the 2011 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance where it had 73,714 km (46,000 mile).
