The seats were also dyed a similar colour, and the car transported Taylor to Rome, where she filmed “Cleopatra.”

The Rolls will be auctioned at the Pierre Hotel on 61st Avenue on Tuesday, August 6 at 10.30 a.m. and will be on display over the next two weeks.

Liz, who died in 2011 aged 79, ordered the car after her 1959 wedding to singer Eddie Fisher, the fourth of her seven husbands.

Her 1960 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II convertible isn’t the only thing to go on sale, with her Versace dress and Louboutin evening bag also being up for grabs.
