This 1960 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II is a beautiful US delivery
LHD example with factory air conditioning and is in overall great
condition! The 1960 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II chassis LSRA217
represents a refined example of the model that introduced V8 power
to the celebrated Silver Cloud line. Showing 97,645 miles, the
Rolls-Royce presents in great condition and remains ideally suited
for touring, club events, and traditional Rolls-Royce motoring.
Chassis LSRA217 was delivered to the United States in June 1960 to
Charles Edwin Davis of San Marino, California, originally finished
in Velvet Green with Beige interiors. One of just 2,417 Series II
examples produced, the Rolls-Royce combines the marques legendary
craftsmanship with the improved performance of the 6.2-liter V8 and
GM Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. The Rolls-Royce passed to
Colleen Horner of Newport Beach, California in 1973 and later to
Leo Goodkind of Waterloo, Nebraska in 1978. The current owner
acquired the Silver Cloud II in 2001. The Rolls-Royce has been
maintained as a respected touring example and participated in the
2001 AACA Eastern Fall Meet in Hershey, PA . Accompanying
documentation includes original build sheets, the chassis card, and
ownership history. The Rolls-Royce is currently in velvet green
over silver two tone with tan pinstriping that presents in great
condition and shows good depth and luster. The prominent chrome
grille, bumpers, Great Britain badge, and Spirit of Ecstasy remain
bright and in very good condition. The cosmetic imperfections found
are a slight dent on the rear driver-side swan neck overrider and
dent on the roofline just above the windshield. The steel wheels
finished in Velvet Green with Rolls-Royce logos present in good
condition consistent with normal use and are mounted with wide
whitewall tires in good condition but will need to be replaced due
to age (2004). We are a dealer through Coker tire that the next
owner can choose to use to purchase tires of their preference
before delivery. The Rolls-Royce interior is trimmed in original
beige leather paired with beige wool carpeting that presents in
good overall condition. The interior wood and carpeting were
restored in 2001. There is wear consistent with age and use with
one tear and some cracking in the driver's side seat. This
left-hand-drive U.S. example retains its original charm with burled
walnut door cappings and dash panels that remain in great
condition. Smiths instrumentation, factory amenities include air
conditioning, power windows, and an AM/FM radio, while rear picnic
tables finished in matching burl walnut continue to present in
great condition and enhance the Silver Clouds traditional passenger
comfort. The Rolls-Royce is powered by the 6.2-liter V8 engine
(engine number 271AS) paired with a four-speed GM Hydra-Matic
automatic transmission, offering improved torque and smoother power
delivery compared with earlier Silver Cloud models. The chassis
incorporates power steering, front independent suspension with coil
springs, and a rear live axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs,
with four-wheel servo-assisted drum brakes deliver controlled
stopping performance. The water pump, alternator and belts were
replaced in 2017 and a complete brake service was completed in
2017. In 2013, the wiper motor was rebuilt and electric accessories
were serviced which included wiring fixes for power windows, turn
signals, foglights, door latches, bake lights and bulb
replacements. The AC compressor was rebuilt in 2002. Chassis
