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

Take a look at the shocking Rolls-Royce Next 100 concept

Thu, Jun 16 2016

Rolls-Royce showed off its Vision Next 100 concept today in London, giving a look at what its vehicles might look like a century years from now. Each BMW brand will show its own concept this year; BMW's Vision Next 100 concept was an interesting mix of textile-like patterns with stretchy fenders and a very 2010s four-door coupe shape, but this Rolls-Royce concept looks more like a luxury version of a World Solar Challenge racer. The car's official title is 103EX, following the convention of recent Roller concepts. Whereas its BMW counterpart was perhaps a safe, predictable vision of the future, the Rolls is a striking vehicle and a big departure for the brand. Whether it works as a whole for you or not, it represents the kind of stylistic provocation that made ex-BMW stylist Chris Bangle a household name. While the early Bangle cars were extremely controversial, this Rolls concept is clearly the heir of his penchant for sharply creased character lines. Call the rocker panel crease flame surfacing if you want. The floating headlamps and blade-edged verticality of the fenders are classic Rolls: imposing and visually heavy, without necessarily being classically beautiful. The square, flat grille is, to my eyes, much less successfully integrated. It seems like Rolls had the perfect opportunity to evolve the trademark grille into something more contemporary. In 100 years, the brand will still need to lean on this sort of anachronism? That seems short-sighted. We'll have more on this concept from our man on the ground in London later today.

2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost has a fascinating new part to make it one of the most comfortable cars in the world

Wed, Sep 23 2020

One of the neat things about Rolls-Royce is the extraordinary lengths the company will go to for maximum comfort. It's like how supercar builders will look for every little advantage to make their cars a tenth of a second faster. On the 2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost, the company is employing something called the Planar Suspension System, a nebulous designation for the collection of systems and parts employed. Some are straight forward, such as the four-wheel independent air suspension, and the way the GPS and forward cameras inform what level of firmness should be employed on the road. But one part left us perplexed: the upper control arm damper. We spoke to Jon Simms, lead engineer for the Ghost, for more information, and now we have a better grasp on what it is and what it does. As for what it is, it's the roughly horseshoe-shaped object highlighted in purple in the above photo. The yellow parts are bumpstops, and it's mounted on the same joint as the upper control arm. And it turns out it's a pretty simple piece of equipment. It works very much like the harmonic balancer on the end of an engine. It's a weight with a rubber-y flexible hinge, and going over smaller bumps, it absorbs some of the extra vibration and movement from the suspension. Those bumpstops in yellow give the damper some extra purchase on the control arm, and they absorb impacts from larger bumps that may move the control arm suddenly so that the arm and damper don't bang into each other. This may seem like a pretty minor thing, but remember, Rolls-Royce and its buyers are out for maximum comfort, so there's reason to invest in ironing out every possible ride quality issue, no matter the size. And even if it's a minor improvement, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Simms told us that existing Ghost customers they talked to during development had one key request about the driving experience: "don't break it." So making sure that the new car was basically like the last one, but a bit better, would seem to be what customers would want. 2021 Rolls-Royce Ghost View 29 Photos The Ghost is the first Rolls-Royce to adopt this full suite of Planar Suspension System parts, though other Rolls-Royce models have had pieces of the system. And considering the fact the Ghost shares its platform with the Phantom and Cullinan, now, we wouldn't be surprised if later versions of those models pick-up parts like this damper. Related Video:
