*** LEFT HAND DRIVE EURO SPECIFICATION CAR*** LOCATED IN OAK BROOK ILLINOIS PRICED TO SELL !!! NO RESERVE !!! ONLY SERIOUS BUYERS NEED READ FURTHER !!!
BODY: Paint is Pearl White (an older paint job, still showing well) Has a minor "chip" in the paint by drivers mirror. One minor (dime sized ding on drivers door).Left rear wheel arch has a minor bubble. Chrome and hub caps look good. Grill and flying lady are in nice condition as well. The glass is free of cracks or damage. A nice looking car !!! INTERIOR: Tan/Cream leather in very nice shape, no rips or tears. Has a beautiful headliner (see photo) All carpet shows well too (remember it's a 1978)! Wood is in decent condition. Has an updated CD player and working power antenna. MECHANICAL: Recently serviced (spark plugs & oil/filter change) also set carbs. (HAS DUAL SU CARBS). Had newer tires (has been sitting) . Steering rack replaced. Had $9,000 in brake work (that was several years ago, comes with several detailed repair logs and invoices) The car stops great, no issues with brakes. Seems to drive locally better then on the highway. Air condition blows cold and heat is hot. All power windows work (rears are a little slow on the way up, but always close on their own) Power door locks work correctly as all of the lights. Only 70500 miles, low for the age. Runs and drives well. The transmission shifts smooth and engine stays cool. I wouldn't recommend any long journeys till it's been sorted through (been off the road several years, I purchased from a very nice retired man in southern USA). I would also like to mention it's only be run on RR363 brake fluid, very important as you know.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Rolls-Royce readying Wraith convertible
Thu, 08 May 2014For seven years, Rolls-Royce got by on the Phantom line alone, expanding on the original saloon with a long-wheelbase version, a coupe and the convertible. But now that the Ghost is part of the family, Goodwood seems to be following a similar expansion.
What started with the Ghost sedan has since been joined by the extended-wheelbase model and the Wraith fastback coupe. And now we're receiving spy shots of a Wraith-based convertible undergoing testing.
Potentially to be called the Wraith Drophead Coupe like its larger Phantom-based counterpart, the cabrio is likely to borrow much from the Wraith fastback - including its 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 producing 624 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque - but with a folding cloth roof mechanism to let the wind and engine note in, although the prototype pictured here is wearing a makeshift hardtop.
