1969 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, last ones with metal bumper. Ivory on British Racing Green. LHD American export originally delivered to a salesman in Texas, who drove it daily for the first ten years. No rust whatsoever. Second owner for the next 20+ years was a physician on the east coast. He was often observed doing research at the RR Foundation library, as he wanted to do his own work.

The engine is original Rolls Royce 5.75 liter V-8. The car has not been in any accident. No filler was ever used on the aluminum or steel body parts. The body, chassis and top end were professionally renovated in 2002, no expense spared, at 96k miles. All factory upgrades such as differential carrier, carburetor shut off valves, in tank thermostat, brake pump and others, were performed at that time. Since then, the car has been driven few miles, for weddings and on special occasions. The interior including wood, is in excellent original condition. This is a heirloom quality for your family.

Typical issues for this model had been attended to. Everything works, including gauges and air conditioning. It is outstanding in its present condition as a "driver." I would not hesitate to take it cross country for Club events. If you've never owned or driven a Rolls Royce, this is an once in a life time experience. Feel and smell the leather with the sight of beautiful wood. It is like nothing else cruising down the highway, for less investment than a vintage hot rod. You could get one in average condition for less, and expect to spend more during your stewardship.

I may be open to seriously honest trades, Model A, foreign sports, American classics, especially partial to a 59 Impala, .... or vintage cycles. This car will be in the RROC Flying Lady in May, for members only. It is also advertised overseas targeted for selective and discerning potential investors. It is subject to prior sale and be withdrawn at any time.

Please review my feedback of vehicles sold.

Latest Rolls-Royce Wraith teaser reveals fastback form

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

In its fourth and final teaser before the 2014 Wraith is introduced next week, Rolls-Royce has released another image of the car showing a distinct fastback appearance. We've seen this car teased in its profile before, but that image had a heavy shadow over the rear of the car obscuring what should be the Wraith's defining element.
Rolls-Royce motorcars aren't exactly known for having overtly sporty proportions, but this could all change with the Wraith's styling. Judging by the teased drawing and official words from Rolls-Royce, the coupe's roofline will flow practically in a straight line from the A-pillar back to the rear of the car. With such a design, the Wraith could well become one of the world's most elegant and expensive hatchbacks, though it may also have a conventional hinged trunk opening.
Over the last month, we've also seen a rear shot of the car as well as glimpse of what the interior has in store, but the two images showing the car's profile give us our best idea of what to expect when the car is unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show. Until then, you can check out our winter testing spy shots and read a brief quote from Rolls-Royce design director Giles Taylor in the press release posted below.

Rolls-Royce Ghost counts 1001 Nights back to the 1970s

Wed, Oct 28 2015

A Rolls-Royce should remind you of a golden age of motoring – cruising around the British Isles with a giant hood ornament pointing the way forward is, in some circles at least, the epitome of class. This latest special edition, however, revives another time and place altogether... one nowhere near as classy. The Rolls-Royce Ghost 1001 Nights edition takes its inspiration from the classic Middle Eastern tome, and throws in some unfortunate 1970s style for good measure. It's done up in a two-tone brown and orange exterior color scheme, for some reason unbeknownst to us, with hand-painted coach lines and Arabian-themed motifs inside and out. The Middle Eastern cues are one thing... the paint job, on the other hand, reminds us of an age when Goodwood was producing ostentatious boxes in questionable color schemes, powered by 6.75-liter V8s mated to three-speed automatic transmissions and producing power that Rolls-Royce referred to as "adequate." Of course, nobody is forcing anyone to buy this unfortunately customized Ghost. The company's Bespoke division will set one up for any paying customer just the way he or she desires. Just why anyone would desire this particular configuration, however, is beyond us. Still, we doubt the ultra-luxe automaker will have much trouble selling however many of them it produces at whatever price point it determines Â– such is the apparent demand for Rolls-Royces in the Persian Gulf region. After North America, the Middle East is the company's largest market. Last year the dealership in Abu Dhabi sold more units than any of the other 126 showrooms around the world. And that's not even including the other dealers in nearby Dubai and Sharjah (both in the UAE), plus additional showrooms in Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and three more in Saudi Arabia Â– all carving up one of the most lucrative markets in the world. It only keeps growing, and Rolls-Royce reports that every last one it sells in the region has been customized by the Bespoke division. Related Video:

Rolls-Royce Ghost gets in the pink for breast cancer charity

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Rolls-Royce has unveiled a special version of its extended-wheelbase Ghost, called FAB1, with the hopes of helping to raise more than one million pounds (roughly $1.5 million) for a UK charity named Breast Cancer Care. Over the next year, the FAB1 Million Project will see this pink Ghost used to raise money by renting it out for special events and occasions with all of the proceeds going to the charity.
More than just a pretty pink paint job, though, this Ghost demonstrates some of the bespoke options you can order from Rolls-Royce, including pink carpeting, pink leather, pink center caps and even a pink umbrella tucked into the door. The full press release for this Ghost can be found below.
