This 1957 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud came from the factory with a 4.9 L inline-six. It now has an engine with just slightly more displacement but an extra two cylinders. Under the iconic hood sits a first-generation 5.0 L Coyote V8 producing 412 hp (303 kW). Behind the swapped motor is a 6R80 six-speed automatic transmission, Northwest Drivetrain custom driveshaft, and Quick Performance 9-inch rear end. The foreign powertrain is supported by a custom chassis featuring a Mustang II-style front suspension with a Flaming River steering rack and adjustable coilovers. In the rear is a four-link suspension with Panhard bar. Braking is handled by Wilwood six-piston front brakes and four-piston rear brakes. There is also an E-Stopp emergency brake. The body is covered in GM Silver Ice Metallic and Dark Ming Blue PPG Deltron paint accented by US Mags El Dorado forged wheels (18×8, 18×9) wearing Nitto NT555 G2 tires.
