I have been a hot rod guy since a kid. One car I have always wanted was a 1936 Chevrolet 5 Window Coupe that was ready to go. I found one that was close to my dream car on Classic Car Store’s website. All steel body built from the ground up as a Pro-Touring car and built right. Jim was very helpful, specific and told me the good and bad about the car. I decided to buy it, bought a one-way ticket from Oklahoma to Birmingham, AL. I hoped the car was what it was supposed to be. Jim picked me up at the Airport and took me to the Owner, an elderly gentleman in a small country town. The car was everything represented, much nicer than I expected. After getting the banking handled I made a road trip back home to Oklahoma stopping and seeing a couple of friends on the way back. Not one problem with the car. Overall it was an excellent experience, especially when you are buying a car from photos and getting information from someone you don’t know. If you want a straight shooter when buying a Classic Car, Jim is the man. Thank you, DF-OK

"I've known Jim Lowrey for almost 30 years and have always respected him as the most knowledgeable and experienced person I knew when it came to cars. Buying cars through Jim has made the process literally a breeze!  Even more important to me than his expertise is his honesty and integrity. I would recommend Jim to anyone wanting to buy or sell a car!"  MG, AL

Craig from San Diego says:

I would not have been able to sell my 1963 Split Window Corvette for anything close to its sale price without Jim's assistance. He is professional, hard-working, and his expertise was invaluable. I recommend him highly to anyone trying to sell a classic vehicle! (Craig, San Diego, CA)

Jim, it was nice working with you.  I am not sure if I will do anything to the car (1970 GTO), but it really is a lot better car than I thought originally because the price was so good.  I am glad I came to look at it and have my mechanic check it out.  I will keep up with your cars because I still want to add to my collection as I can.  Thank you again.  AB, AL

Description
One of Eight 1965 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III Touring Limousine by James Young

Chassis LCDL81 is one of 8 left-drive Long Wheelbase Cloud IIIs fitted with James Young's superb Touring Limousine Coachwork, known by its design number "SCT100." Sometimes referred to as the "Baby Phantom" for its resemblance to the James Young bodied Phantom V, it is a masterclass of proportion and elegance. The SCT100 is a beautiful design, notable for its "turtleback" semi-fastback boot and sweeping fender lines. According to notes in Lawrence Dalton's book Rolls Royce: The Elegance Continues, chassis LCDL81 was displayed at the 1964 Paris Salon and has several fascinating details. Notable features of this car include a division window, integrated rear footrests, a spectacular wood rear fascia housing tray tables, a spare fuel gauge (curiously), and ventilation controls. Of particular interest is the rear sunroof panel, which slides forward over the driver's compartment and affords rear passengers a dose of fresh air and sunshine. Should the weather be less than ideal, it is equipped with air conditioning with integrated, upholstered outlets in the rear C-pillars.

Finished in two-tone burgundy over black with beige leather upholstery, this Cloud III is offered in very good condition overall, having come from an extensive collection of Rolls-Royce and Bentley automobiles. Mechanically strong, it runs and drives wonderfully. As one of only eight left-drive SCT100 Cloud IIIs extant, it is undoubtedly a highly collectible and significant motorcar. This is a very elegant, low-production Silver Cloud III beautifully representing the elegant and classic Rolls-Royce Motor Car with custom coachwork by James Young.
