About this car

This 1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I has been through a full restoration by marque specialists Classic Restoration Services of Chichester. The car was stripped completely and all corrosion removed. New metal was let in, including the inner and outer sills.

The colour scheme is unusual for a Cloud: pale metallic greenish gold over black. Inside, it has very dark purple leather with matching carpets. The wood has been taken out and refinished to a mirror polish.

The dealer says the mechanicals have also been gone through thoroughly. No mileage is stated. The car is UK-registered as 456YYC.
