1961 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud LHD V8 grey over black with red leather

Description for Rolls-Royce Other 1961

You will find this to be a great example of a Silver Cloud, he V8 gives these cars the power they had been needing for a few years, nd the smoothness is very impressive for a 54 year old cruiser. This left hand drive example is finished in pewter over black with a subtle red pinstripe that matches the red leather interior. This car is very drivable and runs out rather well with a four-speed automatic transmission behind a dual-carburetted 6.2 litre engine. She is fitted with power windows, ower assisted brakes and steering, nd a factory rear-mounted air conditioning system (that requires recharging every year). The only aftermarket item on the car are seat belts mounted in front and rear seating positions. Servicing is up-to-date and the radial tires have very little wear. The Engine starts directly, nd uses no oil or shows any signs of smoking; the trans shifts firmly at the correct shift points. The chassis is squeak and rattle free, andles well, nd drives straight; actually quite easy and enjoyable to drive about. The interior is in great condition, ith that wonderful aroma of english leather! The wood panels are in fine condition and quite glossy still. The paint is overall very nice, ith minimal scratching; a few small spots may need attention if you want perfection. I expect if your viewing a car like this, ou already have a knowledgable base about Silver Cloud history, o I won't babble on.

I will expect a deposit within 5 days of $1000.00; with balance within 10 days of auction finish. The Cloud is not unhappy here so there is no time crunch on picking her up.
