The first series of Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud was the replacement for the Silver Dawn and the last six-cylinder Rolls-Royce ever built.
Rolls-Royce mechanics were reliable as ever on this car; the 4.9-liter six cylinder engine had been known to run for 200,000 miles without major overhaul. The suspension was softer than in the past, with electrically adjustable rear shock absorbers. The interior had leather pile upholstery, and the luxurious appointments included folding center armrest and slide out picnic tables, ashtrays and vanity mirrors.
Of the 2,359 first-series Silver Clouds, all but 121 were bodied in the factory and were available either in single colors or two tones. The others included sedans by J. Young, and 38 convertibles coupes by H. J. Mulliner. This car is one of 13 original 38 cars built with left-hand drive.
This car was in entire original condition prior to itís first-ever restoration. It has only 24,000 miles on the odometer making it the lowest mileage example in existence.
