Replacing the important but nottremendously popular Silver Dawn in 1955 was the Silver Cloud,offering body-on-frame construction, permitting both the typicalPressed Steel Company bodies but also alternate configurations. Inits sophomore year, it introduced power steering and airconditioning to the Rolls-Royce line for the first time. It wassuccessful but by 1959 Rolls-Royce sought to further separateitself from the competition and introduced a new 6.2L V8 to replacethe old 4.9L Inline 6. This car became the Silver Cloud II and wasequally successful over its three year run, where power steeringbecame standard and power windows found their way onto the optionlist. But the ultimate Silver Cloud was released in 1963; featuringa 220 lb. lighter body with new quad headlights, upgraded 2" SUcarburetors replacing the previous 1" units, and 9:1 compression.The Silver Cloud III became one of the best high speed luxurysaloons of the 1960's. Seeing as the newest Silver Cloud is nowover 50 years old possessing more of earth's natural resources thanmost modern luxury sedans, along with arguably much more class,they should be the staple in any Rolls-Royce collection for itscombination of elegant styling with modern drivability.
