Rolls Roy's Silver Cloud l Cabriolet 1957
Owner's description of this impressive vehicle:
In August 2008, my lovely Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud l Cabriolet (chassis number SED 57, produced in May 1957) came home to Denmark from England.
Along with the car, there are newspaper articles and notes about the car's previous owners and the car's history, as well as invoices for the car's maintenance/ renovations.
Also included are registration documents, the car's original service book, plus a brand new service book, photo album with pictures of its conversion from a 4-door saloon to a 2-door convertible (this conversion started in September 1992 and was completed at the end of 2002)
The conversion was carried out by Wildae Restorations LTD and is according to experts even better body work than what Mulliner did.
In Denmark, the car has been fitted with electronic ignition, the clock has been converted to an electronic clock, plug for GPS, plug for battery charger, fire extinguisher etc. In addition, a hidden main switch has been installed that disconnects all electronics near the watch. The car has also had inner fenders fitted and the undercarriage has been treated.
The car has received several awards in England and Denmark for best ``Pre War car''. The existing prizes come with the car to the new owner, as do the original English number plates VYK732. A specially made cover for the car is also included.
2 pcs. original flight jackets (men's and women's model) and 2 pcs. - helmets may can be purchased separately.
When I received the car from England in 2008, the speedometer showed 16, 879 miles - now the trip meter reads approx. 36000 miles.
In 1985, the engine was completely disassembled and refurbished and has since driven only 36, 000 miles, which, among other things, is due to the car being idle during rebuilding in the period 1992 - 2002. The engine is the fine in-line 6èr of 4887 cm3 as ilfg. experts is the best engine Rolls-Royce has built.
