Thanks for looking at another one of my classic car auctions... I have had this car since 2012 and really don't give it the attention a vehicle of this status deserves (MEANING IT'S SIMPLY JUST SITTING)... I purchased this car from an elderly doctors wife from Nashville, Tennessee. He had it for a great number of years and as his health declined so did his attention of this wonderful classic... Since I've had it I've spent well over $5,000 in upkeep and needed repairs as follows (all work was preformed by a local Rolls Royce repair facility in Northwest Illinois): REBUILT front calipers (4) with proper Rolls Royce kits & stainless steel pistons New front ROTORS from ALBERS BENTLEY ZIONSVILLE (NOT CHINA) NEW FRONT & REAR BRAKE PADS from ALBERS BENTLEY ZIONSVILLE (NOT CHINA) NEW NGK proper Spark plugs from BENTLEY DOWNERS GROVE (NOT AUTOZONE) NEW REAR ACCUMULATORS & SEALS (BENTLEY ZIONSVILLE) ALL NEW OEM DRIVE BELTS (BENTLEY ZIONSVILLE) NOT PEPBOYS !!! CHANGED OIL & FILTER NEW BATTERY Antifreeze, transmission, diff, and power steering fluids flushed and changed as well... Mineral oil was flushed and bled during the installation of the rear accumulators.
All in all it's a strong running and driving car and is roadworthy. All power windows work. Radio works but the antenna sticks once it reaches half way. Power door locks work 90% of the time and sometimes don't, (loose wire?)... A/C is cold, but only holds Freon for a a few months (slight leak, may be cheaper just to recharge every three months then fix). AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON !!! This happened when I let the battery go dead over the winter, it needs to be reset by a Rolls dealer (FOLEYS RR of Northbrook QUOTED ME $150). Oil pressure sending unit for the gauge is faulty, oil pressure is fine. It leaks a few drips of oil, but to be fair all of my 7 other Rolls Royce and Bentley's do... If I think of anything else I'll post it, but I feel it's all on the table... Paint is a 6.5 out of 10... It has a few chips (mainly near the gas flap). One obnoxious scratch on the trunk about 1.5 inches long. The paint color is "MAGNOLIA" a very pretty color... Looks good or even great from 10 feet away, but after further inspection it has its fair share of cracks and wear to the paint. I would also like to mention I noticed previous paint work in areas (NOT FROM COLLISION) probably from up keep of higher standards earlier on in it's life. SHORT AND SWEET, I'd repaint it... But it's up to you... The interior is also "MAGNOLIA" and features a saddle colored piping and dash. The leather is free of ant tears or rips. Being an off white it will need to be dyed to look new. The wood was redone on all four doors and looks good. carpets are ok too... I have all tools and took kit. I cannot get the center caps to stay on, I put them in the trunks for safe keeping...
MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN... I AM SELLING OFF MY COLLECTION TO PURCHASE A LATE MODEL BENTLEY GT... I THINK IT MAKES MUCH MORE SENSE FOR ME TO HAVE A LATER MODEL CAR VERSES A DOZEN OLDER ONES NEEDING MINOR TLC... I WILL BE SELLING my 1964 Bentley S3 Project and my BEAUTIFUL 1965 Bentley S3 next... I have sold several Rolls Royce and Bentley recently and have 100% feedback. My car is sold "as is" and is subject to local interest and I have it on other sites. Please ask questions or come see it/drive. But remember if you bid, you're buying... I'M SELLING WITH NO RESERVE !!! I have OVER $15k in this car, MY LOSS is YOUR GAIN !!! PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL OR EMAIL ME: (847)826-2584 or classiccarking@yahoo.com
REMEMBER...... NO RESERVE MEANS IF YOU BID YOU BID TO BUY... TITLE IN HAND CASH OR WIRE (OUT OF STATE BUYERS) NO SCAMS OR DREAMERS PLEASE !!!
GOOD LUCK & HAPPY BIDDING !!! |

Rolls-Royce debuts Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection
Tue, 13 May 2014For the next act in its Bespoke Collection, Rolls-Royce has found one of its own to celebrate with the Phantom Drophead Coupé Waterspeed Collection, noting the achievements of British land and water record-holder Sir Malcolm Campbell. Like a few other racers of his era in the 1920s and 1930s, Campbell used his Bluebird Motor Company and Bluebird Garage to fund his interest in motorsports. He would break the waterspeed record in 1937 in his Bluebird K3 powered by a Rolls-Royce R engine, traveling 126.33 miles per hour on Italy's Lake Maggiore.
We've seen sketches of what Rolls-Royce intended with the Waterspeed Collection, and the real thing is just as handsome, and the new model includes a number of firsts for the marque. The Maggiore Blue exterior paint is also used for highlights on the engine, the polished wheels, two-tone steering wheel and the dashboard. The tonneau cover normally finished in teak is instead done in hand-finished brushed steel, a closer contrast to the Windchill Grey interior. The Abachi wood veneers have also been bookmatched so that their grain evokes the wake of a speeding boat.
The droptop will be shown first at the Bluebird Garage Cafe in London on the site of the original garage, after which it will get its first wider showing at the Concorso D'Eleganza at Villa D'Este later this month. The press release below has a lot more detail on the finer detailing of the Drophead Coupe Waterspeed, and the images above are worth at least 8,000 words.
Rolls-Royce to reach 4,000 units this year
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Rolls-Royce is, by nature, an exclusive auto marque, but it has been steadily increasing its sales to the point that it could be looking at 4,000 units by the end of this year, setting a new record for the German-owned British automaker.
You don't even need to go back a decade to find Rolls-Royce sales hovering around the 1,000-unit mark. But that was when Goodwood only offered the Phantom saloon. The subsequent addition of the Phantom DHC and Phantom Coupe helped expand its portfolio, enlarged even further by the addition of the Ghost in 2010, by which time total sales were reaching 3,000 units.
The Spirit of Ecstasy marque has been hovering around the 3,500 mark ever since, but with the Wraith now in the mix and its reach extending into growing markets around the world, Autocar reports that global sales could top 4,000 units this year. (Of course that pales in comparison to one-time sister brand Bentley, which topped 10,000 deliveries last year, but Rolls-Royce typically competes at a higher price bracket.)
Home of Rolls-Royce Collection makes debut at the Quail
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Rolls-Royce is marking 10 years of production at its Goodwood, England home, with the aptly named Home of Rolls-Royce Collection. The first instance of the Collection, a brilliantly appointed Phantom, has come to The Quail to make its world debut.
The goal of the Home of Rolls-Royce Collection seems to be to really showcase the kind of pristine, detailed work that the artisans back in Goodood are capable off, while creating a car that almost instantly achieves heirloom status. The Phantom seen here displays a truly impressive wood paneled cabin, where a technique called marquetry has been used to inlay some 170 sections of 11 different types of wood into a "celebration" motif.
You'll find a compass theme throughout the car as well - inside and out - which the company tells us is meant to highlight the sales of Goodwood-built Rollers on five continents across the world. Compass designs can be found on the armrests and center console, with each piece of embroidery taking more than 100,000 stitches to create. Not to be outdone in terms of time lavished, the compass motif painted on the exterior of the car takes one squirrel-hair-brush-wielding craftsman six hours to perfectly apply.
