The last year for the Silver Cloud I was 1958. When introduced in 1955, it was a completely new motorcar that was built, checked and rechecked in the manner traditionally associated with the Rolls-Royce marque. Produced after a long period of design and development; they are near silent, luxurious and powerful. They were designed to corner surely and to hold a high average speed without fatigue to the driver or passengers.

This example is finished in black with gray interior that is original and displays various defects and a finish that is referred to as a “35-year repaint.” This Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud has had but three owners from new, and it is reported as a solid, rust-free example. It has been serviced by a local Southern Florida Rolls-Royce expert. The Cloud is the desirable left-hand drive model and is powered by a 4.9-liter inline six-cylinder engine that is mated to an automatic transmission. Among the other appointments are wood interior trim elements, including picnic tables, air conditioning, radial whitewall tires, factory wheel covers, Lucas foglamps and radio.
