Highlights
- Comprehensively restored to a very good standard
- Highly desirable ‘drophead coupé’ variant
- Beautiful red leather upholstery and walnut veneers
The Appeal
Compared to the relatively staid styling of Rolls-Royces Standard Steel Saloons, the H.J. Mulliner Park Ward-bodied Silver Cloud IIIs were remarkably modern. Inspired by high-end Italian cars of the era, these stylish coupés incorporated perky tail fins, quad headlamps and flowing lines.
This left-hand drive 1963 drophead coupé has been imported to the UK and will be registered prior to handover. Benefitting from a full restoration, this distinctive Rolls-Royce is ready to drive.
