1961 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II

Here’s your chance to own the pinnacle of 60s luxury. Very few cars can turn heads like this beauty. Her style has no bounds. Even as a driver quality vehicle it still captivates the eye.

This 1961 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II, drives with grace and pace. The speedo shows only 44,633 miles, which we believe to be accurate. With a little love and attention this could be a very nice ride.

This Rolls Royce was owned by the same family since the late 60s. The previous owner drove the car regularly. When he passed away 3 years ago, the car was put into storage in a warehouse in Atlanta, Georgia. We found the car under a car cover and in the condition it is today. After some carb cleaning the car was right back into driving condition.

Now let’s go over the exterior… She shows alright from a distance, but the paint is a definite must. There’s some various cracking, scratches, etc, and vehicle of this elegance deserves only the highest level of detail. The doors, hood and boot shut nicely with very nice gaps, the body is incredibly straight as this was garaged for the life of the vehicle. The chrome is nice driver quality, but again, she is deserving of the highest level of detail. All of the lights work and the glass holds clear all the way around. Wipers work!! Windows work, but the drivers window does go up slowly.

On to the interior… The wood is good, but could use a new varnish to be perfect, but it is not cracking and is of driver quality, way better than most unrestored cars. The instruments are all original Smiths, work and are in great condition. The seats are checked and new leather would be a nice touch. The carpet and headliner are acceptable, and a cleaning would do wonders.

Engine/tranny/running gear… The engine starts quickly, but is cold blooded and likes to warm up for a couple minutes. We performed a leak down test to gauge condition of the engine and the results were fantastic! She showed between 10-15% on all cylinders according to our test and 140-145 compression across the board. This is a solid engine and goes along with the millage stated by the odometer. She could use a fine tuning to be perfect, but runs out well. Tranny shifts nicely with no noises. Brakes work well and have a nice feel. Tires probably should be replaced as they are vintage!

Overall, This is a fantastic start to an excellent project and much better than most. This is a running and driving rolls that you can enjoy today, and the Rhd”s are coming back!

Buy this car today and you won’t be disappointed, we drove the car down the freeway the other day and it felt as if we were floating on a cloud…

By the way, Miss Daisy should have owned a Rolls Royce.
