Drophead Coupe
Coachwork: Mulliner
Chassis #: SAE79
Design number 7504 by H.J. Mulliner is commonly known as an 'Adaptation' as the standard steel saloon was adapted into a convertible by removing the steel top, then fitting two doors in place of four. It is believed that thirty-three examples were so equipped. This Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II was a special-order example by the first owner, John Halperin of New York, who accepted delivery on April 8th of 1962 through J.S. Inskip. It had been flown from England via Silver City Aircraft to New York. It left the factory fitted with power brakes, power-assisted steering, windows, an antenna, and a convertible top. By the close of the 1990s, the Rolls-Royce had made its way to California while it was owned by a resident of Rancho Santa Fe, California, before being acquired by the Fleischman Collection in 2005.
This Rolls-Royce is finished in 'Sand' paintwork and the cabinetry, picnic and map trays, and instrument panel are finished in the finest burled walnut veneers. It has Wilton wool carpets in 'Cumberland Stone', 'Fawn' West of England wool head-cloth, 'Beige' Connolly hides, a fresh mohair top, and correct white wall tires.
