This 1965 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III Flying Spur is one of just 17 LHD examples built with Mulliner Park Ward’s elegant coachwork. Presented in concours condition, the Flying Spur combines rarity, award-winning provenance, and tasteful updates that make it both highly collectible and genuinely usable. Finished in striking Midnight Sapphire with Ivory leather interior, the Flying Spur represents one of the most desirable iterations of the Silver Cloud series. 

Chassis LSFU787 was delivered new in 1965 to Katherine Goff of Corona del Mar, California, through Beverly Hills dealer Charles Hornburg. A passionate Rolls-Royce enthusiast, Mrs. Goff cared for the Silver Cloud III meticulously until her passing at age 90. Later owners included UPS heir John Bradley, who commissioned the restoration in the late 1990s, and Ronald Benach, a dedicated RROC member from Chicago. The former owner, a noted collector of significant Rolls-Royce and Bentleys, acquired the Silver Cloud III in 2016. Under this stewardship, the Flying Spur earned First in Class at Amelia Island in 2017 and the H.J. Mulliner Park Ward Award at the 2024 RROC Annual Meet which is awarded to the Best of Show Coachbuilt Rolls-Royce or Bentley at the RROC Annual meeting. 

The exterior is presented beautifully in Midnight Sapphire, accented by chrome trim that retains exceptional depth and clarity. The Midnight Sapphire exterior has a deep luster and shine that is in excellent condition. The chrome trim is in excellent condition. Distinctive US-delivery clear parking light lenses, now seldom seen, adds to the rarity of this Flying Spur. The Flying Spur’s restoration and subsequent preservation ensure that it maintains concours standards while remaining highly usable for both display and touring. 

Inside, the cabin is a showcase of Rolls-Royce craftsmanship. The burled walnut interior is in excellent condition and displays a rich, deep luster. The Ivory leather upholstery is supple and flawless, accompanied by tan Wilton wool carpeting and Dark Blue mouton sheepskin overlays, both in excellent condition. The Flying Spur has an integrated trunk-mounted air-conditioning unit and all instruments function correctly. The interior is in overall excellent condition and would be welcome at events worldwide. 

The Flying Spur has a 6,230 cc OHV V-8 with twin SU carburetors, delivering 200 bhp through a 4-speed automatic transmission. The Flying Spur has drum brakes for all four wheels, independent front suspension with coil springs, and rear live axle with semi-elliptical leaf springs. The Flying Spur is complete with a full tool kit, jack, spare tire, the original owner’s handbook and historical documentation. The Flying Spur would be welcome at concours events and is ready for touring.
