1962 ROLLS-ROYCE SILVER CLOUD III Lot n° 13

Chassis number: SFU 647 6230 cc 200 hp V8 engine Maximum speed: 175 km/h Launched in 1962, the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III and the Bentley S3, are still fitted with the 6230 cc aluminum V8, coupled to a 4-speed automatic transmission from the General Motors group. The Cloud III can be differentiated from the Cloud II at first glance by its 4 headlights instead of the simple headlights previously used, as well as by the disappearance of the lanterns above the wings and the turn signals in the front wings. This rare example with a hearse body, finished in orange and purple with black leather interior, right-hand drive, was used for promotional purposes by the director of the ready-to-wear company La clef des marques in Paris VIIe, who used it to make deliveries! Turning and in good overall condition, this Silver Cloud III with 2 doors, 2 seats and 4 windows, offers a huge amount of cargo space. It is sold without technical inspection and with its French registration.
