done. The car runs and drives properly, as you would expect from a
Rolls Silver Cloud. Matching interior pillows, a car cover, jack,

Cloud II was introduced in October 1959, with 2,716 built between
1959 and 1962. The car was the first to utilize Rolls-Royce's
aluminum, 6.2-liter, 230-hp V-8 engine which had been in the
planning stages since 1947. The introduction was so significant
that the engine itself was displayed with the new Rolls-Royces at
the London Motor Show. The Motor published an extensive road test
of the new Silver Cloud II, with the subhead, Effortless speed and
extreme quietness with a new V-8 engine. In September 1960, Road
amp; Track reported, it is a pleasure to report that there is still
a company in business dedicated to the task of producing the best
car in the world, regardless of cost.There is nothing quite like
the experience of sitting behind the wheel of a Cloud, and looking
down that long bonnet at Rolls Spirit of Ecstacy atop the radiator
shell guiding your way. Come visit and experience it for yourself.
