It is not a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III, but a Silver Cloud I/II which has been updated with double headlamps and indicator lamps in the front to look like a Silver Cloud III. This has been done quite well, and I seem to remember that the job was executed by Chapron. The clue is of course the height of the radiator, which was lowered on the Silver Cloud III, causing the bonnetline to slope downwards.

This statement by robgeelen2 was quite interesting indeed ("the clue is of course…") and should have known a better ending, and not this bitter ending in oblivion.

The other clue for a genuine UK/European SC3 is the over-riders - this one still has the bigger SC1/SC2 format.
