AI Listing Summary

Condition
7
The car underwent a documented restoration and conversion, including engine overhaul, repaint, and interior re-trim. Power steering, suspension, brakes, and electrics have been improved with significant investment. The car is described as being 'on the button' and enjoyed by the seller, indicating good running condition. However, the description also mentions that the car 'was in need of restoration' previously, and the condition is relative to its age and the work done, placing it in the 'Very Good' category with minor reconditioning possibly required to maintain its condition.

Rather than being a bespoke creation, H.J.
Mulliner's design number 7504 saw the West London firm take delivery of brand new four-door Silver Cloud III Standard Steel Saloons from Crewe and adapt them into extravagant two-door Drophead Coupes.
The result was among the most imposing, stylish and exclusive convertibles of the 1960s; H.J.
Mulliner reputedly reconfigured just thirty-eight Silver Cloud IIIs as Drophead Coupes.
Given the scarcity and value of the genuine article (one sold at public auction during 2021 for over $1.1 million), several companies have followed in H.J.

According to its accompanying RREC copy build records, chassis SFU173 was originally finished in Burgundy with Beige leather upholstery.

King Ltd of King’s Lynn some seven months later.
