History

This Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I was ordered new by Mrs. Kitty L. Bradley in New York. Bodied by James Young and sent to Park Ward for personalisation, this Silver Cloud I "long wheel base" with driver separation has numerous period options and a clear history.

- 1/121 produced in LHD
- Chassis #LCLC46
- Engine #C45C

Leaving the UK factory in 1959 (in Black Pearl) this Silver Cloud I was quickly shipped to New York to its first owner. It was then sold to Ralph Walton Jr, based in Indiana, before going to California to Dr. Robert Pazen in November 1977. Purchased by Jeremy Janss of Silverado in January 1981, he owned the car for 20 years before selling it to Fernando Eiroa, a well-known collector based in Newport Coast, California, in the 2000s.

The current owner bought the car around ten years ago and drives it regularly.

Conditions

Fitted with a bespoke 'vanity', it had no picnic shelves but a narrower partition (35.5 cm by 5 cm), topped by a hand-wound Fleetwood clock by Jaeger.

At Mrs Bradley's request, the interior of the car was redesigned with a specific seat depth (48 cm), a specific distance between the front seat and the partition (66 cm) and a specific space between the floor and the base of the partition (35.5 cm). Handles to assist entry/exit were added at the rear, as were curtains for privacy and enlarged armrests with ashtrays and cigarette lighters for rear passengers.

There were also covers for the driver's seat and K.L.B. monograms on the rear doors!
The previous owner had the Silver Cloud restored and took the opportunity to upgrade its colour scheme to burgundy & silver with a brown leather interior front and rear, while retaining the unique features listed on the factory build sheet.

The restored car was exhibited at an RROC meeting in 2010, where it was awarded 2nd prize for the most improved car. The current owner - a French private collector - has had the car serviced for sale and a CT will be carried out for the occasion.

A full file is available on request and the car will be sold with a 12-month CarJager mechanical warranty.
