This Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud & Phantom V got away, but there are more like it here.

1961 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II

Sold for $38,000 on 11/17/21

This 1961 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II is a left-hand-drive four-door sedan finished in dark blue over light blue leather upholstery. Power to the rear wheels comes from a 6.2-liter V8 paired with a Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission. Additional equipment includes rear seat trays, steel wheels with polished and painted covers, a CB radio, a Kenwood cassette stereo, and a CD changer. Service performed under current ownership reportedly included replacing the steering arm. The car was acquired by the seller in 2020, and is said to have spent time in New York, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. This Silver Cloud is offered with Connecticut registration in the seller’s name.

The J.P. Blatchley-designed body was manufactured by the Pressed Steel Company and features an aluminum-alloy hood, doors, and trunk lid. This example was factory finished in Midnight Blue before being painted a different color and subsequently repainted Midnight Blue under previous ownership. Exterior features include a Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament, a retractable antenna, chrome side mirrors, and twin front driving lamps.

Factory 15” steel wheels feature polished covers with body-color accents and are wrapped in 235/75 Vercelli Classic 787 white-stripe tires with 2020 date codes. The steering arm is said to have been replaced under current ownership.

The cabin features seats trimmed in blue leather with matching door panels and carpets. Amenities include central armrests, electric windows, tray tables for rear-seat passengers, a CB radio, and a Kenwood cassette stereo with an external amplifier and a CD changer. Cracked leather on the seats is visible in the gallery below.

A black three-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a woodgrain dashboard housing a reverse-sweep 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and a combination gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 30k miles, approximately 200 of which have been added during current ownership.

The overhead-valve 6.2-liter V8 sends power to the rear wheels through a GM Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission.

Additional underbody images are provided in the gallery below.

The car does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for a vehicle of its age. It is being sold on its registration.
