Rolls Royce Steering wheel w/ column, but what year and model?

Looks like Silver Wraith, to me. Could be for Dawn as well, but I'm pretty sure it's postwar.

Thank u, I been sent flicker pics of a 38 wraith that shows a similar wheel, but none i seen post war or prewar show a chrome tube and chrome column mount bracket. With the british patent tag on the gearbox facing up, it looks tobe left hand drive, does this make sense? Whats throttle open-close mean, and how does it work to adjust the ride hard to soft?

It would be right hand drive. The throttle control adjusts the engine speed and can be used as an early form of cruise control. Many early American and English cars had this feature. The ride control adjusts the tension on the shock absorbers to give a soft or firm ride.
