Marking the end of a long, proud era of independent British coachbuilding, chassis number LCLEL59 was one of the last long-wheelbase Silver Cloud III built with custom coachwork and one of the final custom bodies produced by the UK’s last extant private coachbuilding firm, James Young Ltd., of Bromley, Kent.
It is one of two long-wheelbase Silver Cloud IIIs built to unique designs — in this case, James Young’s style number SCT100, the touring limousine is known as the “Baby Phantom” for its resemblance to a scaled-down Phantom V. This design incorporates the SCT100’s distinctive features — such as a “turtleback” semi-fastback trunk lid and a sweeping fender line — the result, accented by a two-tone finish in Masons Black and Garnet, was subtle and elegant. It was also well-optioned, with accessories including factory air conditioning, picnic tables, and a rear compartment radio.
The magnificent 1965 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III long wheelbase by James Young is finished in gorgeous Masons black over Garnet with an impeccably kept Connolly leather interior surrounded by magnificent burled Walnut woodwork throughout. This exquisite example is one of only two built without a division partition an individual adjustable front seats. Just released from a world-class collection and is now ready for its next caretaker. We are proud to offer what is certainly the most important and desirable Rolls-Royce to come to market in years!

Incredible opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after and desirable Rolls Royce’s ever produced for the most demanding collector investor or enthusiast who desires the very best!
For all of you who are not familiar, Rolls-Royce no longer exists as it has for the past hundred years; it is now owned by BMW, and models are being mass-produced. The days of cars being handcrafted by artisans in Crewe are now just a fond memory. This particular car was built at a time when Rolls-Royce was truly building the world’s finest motorcars with the care and craftsmanship evident in every detail.
