ROLLS-ROYCE SILVER DAWN

Standard steel saloon.

MK VI Bentley with detuned engine and the U-bonnet/radiator - plus different dash. Stromberg carburettor to '51, Zenith thereafter with the big-bore unit. Export only, and rhd scarce: column shift on all left-hookers, thus the later R-type derivative preferred. Special bodies very seldom seen.
