You are Bidding on a 1973 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. As you can see the picture of the odometer it reads a little less miles because that picture was taken at a photoshoot and after the drive home it sits in my garage at 90213k.  This car has been repainted. It has a beautiful paint job and clear coat. The car is a pretty tricky color, in some photos it looks black/blue, but the actual colors are dark metallic hunter green on the bottom and caribbean blue on the top, with caribbean blue rings on the hubcaps, and tan pinstripes down each side of the chrome trim on the body and double tan lines around each hubcap. The interior is tan leather with dark chocolate brown carpet and in great shape, just normal wear, Although the wood trim on this car is not 100% perfect it is in very good shape, in my opinion not an issue on restoring it, it looks very good throughout the entire car. This car has been garage kept and very well maintained. The car starts and drives like a dream. I bought this car and drove it 1000 miles straight home and it never skipped a beat. It has a new battery and tires as you can see in the pictures (tires..it has a new interstate battery not pictured). Comes with two sets of keys, toolkit & jack (although some tools are missing), clear California title, the original blue California plates, original build sheet, a digital copy of the parts catalogue and service manual, and a few other pieces of paper work that I received when i purchased the car. As you can tell from the pictures this is a beautiful car, it is NOT a 10 footer. These are the only flaws that I have noticed on the car are as follows:


Small scratch on drivers side back window pillar (pictured)
Small nick on drivers door (pictured)
Does not have original radio, has been replaced with cassette player (pictured)
Small paint bubble on driver front fender, i tried to take a picture of it but it is really hard to see, i just want to mention everything so there are no concerns while bidding
Bright lights will not turn on, could be due to a switch or could just need new bulbs
Rear bumper needs new bushings
The door jams should be buffed and cleaned up
Broken wood on glovebox door (pictured)

I am very anal about my vehicles, so these issues although very minor are things that I would fix on the car if I were keeping it, therefore I feel like there is need to mention them. I am extremely happy with this car, and it turns heads like crazy, the only reason I am getting rid of it is because, I am young and it is time for a new project, but I am certainly not giving it away... If it doesn't bring what I know it should I will gladly keep and enjoy it. This car is being sold ASIS.   Buyer will make shipping arrangements, or pick up arrangements, and pay actual shipping costs. Feel free to email or call me with any questions or concerns. 

Thank you and happy bidding,
Nathan Brown

Rolls-Royce Cullinan and BMW 8 Series spied south of Death Valley

Wed, Aug 30 2017

Recently, we've stumbled upon a number of manufacturer prototypes running around. Usually, spy photographers sit and wait for hours with cameras primed in order to get a few shots of a car. We just got lucky. First, we caught the new Chevy Corvette ZR1 convertible during a Facebook Live video. A week or so later McGraw snapped a video of a ZR1 coupe cruising in his neck of the woods. Today, our ace photographer Drew Phillips caught a BMW test fleet filling up the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan and 8 Series coupe in Baker, Calif. Baker sits along Interstate 15, about halfway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. It's just south of Death Valley, and, being late August, suggests that BMW was doing some hot weather testing. Drew was filling up his car when the fleet rolled in. There were at least two of the new king Rolls and a single 8 Series. Both cars were wearing a full swirl camouflage wrap. It's not an uncommon place to see prototypes. Still, seeing a whole fleet roll in is quite a sight. We've seen official photos of the Cullinan before, but these pictures give us our best view of the profile and rear we've had so far. From a distance, it looks like a high-riding version of the new Phantom with a hatch in place of the trunk. The taillights are obviously just filler units. Expect the final version to look very much like the squared off LED units on the Phantom. Likewise the interior and engine should be straight from the Phantom. That means a twin-turbocharged V12, though power is likely to be sent to all four wheels. We've seen the full BMW 8 Series concept a few times now. The proportions on the production car look the same, with a long hood and even longer wheelbase. The nose isn't quite as aggressive as the concept, but we expected the styling to be toned down to meet crash and safety standards. As for engines, look for six, eight and (hopefully) 12-cylinder power under the hood. A plug-in variant is also expected. Both cars have been in development for a long while, so look for full debuts sometime this auto show season. Maybe we'll happen upon some more test mules between now and then. Related Video:

Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II represents a host of subtle tweaks

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

It's not every day that an automaker admits in its own words that a new generation of one of its models is a "subtle redesign," but that's exactly how Rolls-Royce is describing the changes made to its Ghost Series II. Most of the bodywork has seen very light resculpting, including what the brand is calling a tapered "wake channel" that starts just behind the beloved Spirit of Ecstacy's wings evoking "the sight of a jet's vapour trail" and "hinting at the car's dynamism."
So much does Rolls-Royce want to emphasize the Ghost Series II's so-called dynamism that it uses the descriptor a total of eight times in the press release that you're welcome to read below. Looking past that all-too-current buzzword, what we see here is clearly a Rolls-Royce, clearly an ultra-luxury sedan and clearly desirable.
Rest assured, prospective buyers will see all the latest technology inside the new Ghost's interior, including a 10.25-inch high-definition screen and a Spirit of Ecstacy Rotary Controller so as not to "leave unsightly fingerprints at driver and passenger eye level." Of course, plenty of customization is available for the most discerning of buyers, and two new wood veneer options are available - Paldao and Walnut Burr Crossband.

Rolls-Royce Wraith Eagle VIII commemorates 1919 transatlantic flight

Thu, May 23 2019

Rolls-Royce is building a 50-car limited edition of the Wraith called the Eagle VIII that will debut at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este event at the Lake Como. The vehicle commemorates two pilots that completed the first non-stop transatlantic flight 100 years ago. The story behind the flight is fascinating: Captain John Alcock and Lieutenant Arthur Brown flew all the way from St John's in Newfoundland to Clifden, County Galway, Ireland, in a WWI Vickers Vimy bomber. The aircraft's engines were two 20.3-liter Rolls-Royce Eagle VII units, and it appears the engines were the only reliable thing on the flight apart from the crew themselves: the radio and navigation instruments failed right at the beginning of the journey as the wind-driven electrical generator broke, which also meant there was no heating. Because of this, the men had to rely on stars to find Ireland, when dense clouds finally subsided. And it's the clouds and stars that form the centerpieces of the special edition car. The headliner contains 1,183 fibers that light up to form the celestial arrangement at the time of the flight in 1919, with the exact moment when the Vickers plane emerged from the clouds highlighted in red. The decorative wood has silver and copper inlays so it resembles a night-time Earth seen from above. Plaques read "The celestial arrangement at the halfway point 00:17am June 15 1919, 50" 07' Latitude North – 31" Longitude West", and next to the brass speaker grilles, there is a Winston Churchill quote commending the crew, the plane and their unprecedented achievement. "I do not know what we should most admire - their audacity, determination, skill, science, their aeroplane, their Rolls-Royce engines - or their good fortune", it reads. The crash-landing location coordinates are engraved below the dashboard clock. The 1,880-mile ordeal with no heat, occasional snow and a constant barrage of noise from burst exhaust piping took Alcock and Brown 15 hours and 57 minutes, at an average speed of 115 mph. Both aviators were awarded the honor of Knights Commanders of the British Empire by King George V. Alcock later perished after crashing another Vickers plane en route to the Paris Airshow in December 1919. Brown passed away at the age of 62 in 1948. Other detailing on the two-tone Gunmetal and Selby Grey car is also related to the record-breaking Vickers plane, including the black grille vanes that mimic the plane's engine cowling.
