Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III 1965

The 1965 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III is the third and final generation of the Silver Cloud series, which was produced from 1962 to 1966. This model succeeded the Silver Cloud II and distinguished itself, among other things, by the use of dual headlights, adapted to the American regulations in force at the time. A total of 2,044 examples of the Silver Cloud III were built, making this model a relatively limited production within the Rolls-Royce range of that period. The Silver Cloud III also marks the end of an era in which Rolls-Royce used a traditional chassis concept before the introduction of the self-supporting body with the Silver Shadow.
