As far as problems, the electrical system comes to mind first. In the US, it is no problem to get the transmission fixed since it is a GM Hydramatic. Heres a link you may find useful. You can use 63031 as the zip code. Jeff http://www3.nadaguides.com/Values/Zi...Sec=2&wPg=1102 |

Big thanks!
I just took a ride in the net!
I only found prices. In Europe a good SCIII is around 30k€, the coachbuilt cara cost easily the double! I read somehwere read that the aircondition could cause overheating in city traffic Import in GR is not clear. Importing a historical car isn't the same as importing a new one, since you get specific number plates. Thanks, George! |

The SCIII is a dream for me and my father!
In GR I haven't seen one, only in Germany where I've lived for the past two years! We'll perhaps find one that needs a bit of work to bring it back to shape. It will be a fun car for the weekends. For the time beeing it is not allowed from our budget, but it is in our targets! Propably a standard salloon! Shopping in US is a bit difficult, when yo have no connections there... €uro helps but how do we know what we get, can you find someone to check it etc?! (The Euro symbol is intergraded in the latest keyboards here! ) Do you know what's up with Conolly leathers? I 've heard they' ve closed Do they still exist with other management?RR was a standard customer for them! |

As far as buying in the US, anytime you buy a car via the internet or whatever, it is risky. If you deal with a reputable dealer, the chances of success are much higher. Perhaps you could ask for references. I bought mine from a guy in California via Ebay. It had some problems, but all in all was pretty good. I'm sure shipping it over seas would not have been a problem. I haven't heard anything about Conolly. Jeff |

An SCIII cab would set you back about $125,000 or more. Jeff |

Re: RR Silver Cloud 3
A normal saloon SC3 would be more than enough!
A cab would be great to cruise slowly on a coastal road with good company, but will remain more than a dream! |

That would be very kind of you for your "poor" friend in GR!
Airconditioning was standard in SC3 or an extra option? AC was at first available in SC2 as option. I think all SC3 I saw in the internet from California had one. |

The Touring Limo you've posted was converted from left to right hand drive! P.S I am thinking that A/C should be an unbelievable luxury that time I don't know any cars at that time, where something like that was available |
