This first of the Silver Shadow series has undergone a very detailed restoration. It is a very true and straight example finished in sought after classic Masons black with light tan Connolly leather interior, highlighted with hand-painted contrasting fine pin-striping to the waist-line and hub-cap beauty rings.
Beautifully and fully restored by the Park-Ward Motor Museum, it was a southern state clean and dry example to begin with. The body was straight & rust-free but the paint was faded and cracked. So it underwent a high-end repaint by our experienced Rolls-Royce and Bentley dedicated body-shop . It is now lustrous and consistent. Being a brand new paint job it is without any marks or blemishes of any kind. The front and rear window were removed from the car during the repaint and new rubbers fitted upon re-assembly. The fine-lines were hand-painted by one of the few remaining craftsmen of the art. The car has always been climate control stored since its restoration and has never seen rain, snow or salt.
The interior is in stunning condition presenting in totally original format. The leather is all original having been re-Connollised. Overall, it is excellent in appearance with only a minimal amount of patina from moderate use over the years. It is a very welcomed look. There are no cuts, tears or worn patches. The leather itself will need ongoing hide food rejuvenation to bring back its complete suppleness. Park-Ward craftsmen have already commenced this operation which takes about 12 months to finalise. The carpets are new Wilton wool, flown in specially from the United Kingdom for this restoration and were custom-made to factory look. Right down to the use of genuine leather binding on all edges. The African burl walnut wood is excellent with all the dash, front window embellishing, all 4 door cappings and vanity mirrors having been recently refinished by our own wood-working shop. The car has original picnic tables fitted to the rear of the front seats which was also redone by Park-Ward's wood refinishing shop. The wood is carefully stripped and no less than 25 coats of clear lacquer is applied. Each, hand-rubbed between coats to achieve a very high-lustre and glass like smooth gloss finish. The picnic tables and the doors are the high-light of the interior with a stunning wood-grain that displays, by the grace of nature, a heavy contrast of light and dark grains.
The dash top-roll and rear parcel shelf are in perfect condition.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014
Thu, 10 Apr 2014While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
Neglected Rolls-Royce Phantom may be the saddest of all time
Fri, 30 May 2014Rolls-Royce prides itself on exemplifying the pinnacle of automotive elegance. The brand is synonymous with quality and luxury. However, in the end even a Rolls is still just a car, and if you don't keep it up, it's bound to fail. That deterioration can be seriously fun to watch, though.
This 2005 Rolls-Royce Phantom might now be one of the worst cars on the planet and only has a little over 95,000 miles on it. The video claims that the original owner in New Jersey didn't make payments on the car for three years but rented the sedan out to people and used it for a livery service. Now, it's repossessed and would probably cost more to fix than it's worth.
This Phantom has had a hard life. We don't want to spoil too many of the broken pieces because they pile up to become increasingly absurd. However, the pièce de résistance must to be the broken Spider-Man umbrella in the door.
Work begins on new Rolls-Royce Phantom, PHEV likely
Fri, 16 May 2014After reporting that a new Rolls-Royce Phantom would arrive sometime around 2017 in the same timeframe as a Rolls-Royce SUV, Autocar has a few more details on the next coming of the massive English sedan. Both its skin and its bones are being worked out right now, brand design head Giles Taylor telling the magazine that his team is "treading an evolutionary path" with the model, suggesting it will have "more charisma and more edge" as part of a future design language that will have "a charismatic expressiveness."
True, that gives us absolutely no indication of what the car will look like, but it seems fair to assume it will feature more curves and detailing than the present car. The long C-pillar will remain, though, the privacy it affords being "part of the Phantom recipe."
What's underneath could be more detailed as well, the report saying BMW is mulling an i3 kind of build, with an aluminum chassis supporting a carbon fiber bodyshell. Assuming production considerations and costs could be kept in line, the benefits would be a lighter car that offers more latitude with the design, easier implementation of new bodystyles and the segment's technology crown. A lighter Phantom would bring further rewards for its PHEV variant, which Autocar says is "a certainty."
