"1958 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud Hearse by Wilcox" from Dan's Action Vehicles Looks like we can merge after deciding if 57 or 58. |

It could be either, or both. Chassis ‘57, body ‘58. It took quite a while to create a coachbuilt body of this type. |

I can believe that, but registered in April 1957 as a rolling chassis perhaps a DVLA error in computerising the data? I propose 1958, any takers? |

Situation complicated by age related registration, so it’s hard to be sure whether Royce’s would have registered the chassis or taken it to the coachbuilder on a transporter. They might not have accepted it as an entity at the DVLA (or it’s equivalent then), until it was finished, so I probably would go for ‘58. Or, chassis could have been driven on trade plates, in which case ‘57 chassis number, but ‘58 registration. -- Last edit: 2023-03-14 21:29:44 |

Listed as 1958 (with the previous '1957 or 1958' discussion clarifying the situation). Merged entry... Ep.7.01 00:19:20 |
