1971 ROLLS ROYCE SILVER SHADOW... Only 46,256 Original Miles, Great for Restore You are looking at a real classic. Rolls Royce has always been known for luxury. Back in 1971 this beautiful classic was the top of technology, nothing could compete with what Rolls Royce had. Even today this awesome ride still turns heads. For the past 20 + years this 1971 Rolls Royce has been sitting parked in some mans garage. I was lucky enough to find it just in time. The last owner clams to be the second owner. He intended to one day fix her up to showroom condition but due to age he was not able to make his dream a reality. I purchased this fine ride a few months ago for my wedding rental business. I have decided from what the Rolls Royce mechanic told me (see below) to purchase a Silver Cloud. About two weeks ago I took to a Rolls Royce mechanic to assess the problems and quote me on what it will take to get her in pristine shape. She does run however she will need a new battery soon, the brakes are weak and will need to be tuned up, the engine is great but will need a tune up as well and a new engine mount (the original mount is broken). I did not have him fix anything, just had him tell me what was the problem an to give me an estaminet. The seats will need to be recovered, a new paint job will need to be done and some other things will need attending to. The total estimated cost to get her in great showroom shape is $9,000 - $11,000. Once this is done she would be worth between 35 and $40,000 +. Like I said this is restoring her to pristine shape. If you did not care about the overall condition as pictured you could spend $1,000 - $2,000 fixing the engine and brakes to make a great daily or sunday driver. I would like to note there is some pictures I provided of the front hood where bondo was applied quite some time ago, the car was not wrecked however the professionals say it was to cover some minor rust that was starting to show. There are some cracks in the paint as pictured. This I have seen on hundreds of Silver Shadows, must be from the thick coat of paint applied when hand built in the 70s. Included in this auction are 5 manuals that go over every part of the car so anyone can fix anything that needs it. Value on the manuals, $500.00. Please note there is some spots of rust, major spots are pictured. This Rolls Royce has a solid metal body and can be sanded down when restored so this baby will shine once again. This is NOT a vinyl top but a metal top, way better in my opinion. Wheels and tires are in great shape, rims are beautiful and will not need restoring. I have tried my best to describe this classic in every way however the pictures tell the real story so please take a look at all 50 pictures I have provided for you. Thanks for looking, GOOD LUCK and please let me know with any questions. SHIPPING Buyer is responsible for all shipping, I will allow shipping over seas however buyer must arrange shipping or provide container. Thanks for looking |

Rolls-Royce Wraith convertible planned, SUV rumors kicked to the curb
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Seeing as it adheres to the exotic car template we've known for years, it should surprise no one that the next model from Rolls-Royce will reportedly be a convertible version of the Wraith. When the coupe is on its way to dealers at the end of this year, company CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös has told Autocar that the British luxury marque start applying itself to the convertible.
At no time will they apply themselves to an SUV, though. Still sticking to its brand-value guns, Müller-Ötvös says that an SUV wouldn't have that trademark Rolls-Royce feeling and that such a vehicle hasn't even been discussed. Having heard this before from other brands, we can't help but suspect that one day in the future we'll hear the phrase, "Oh, but this is the Rolls-Royce of SUVs."
The investment in an SUV would also mean a huge investment in the factory at Goodwood, however, since Wraith production is expected to need three shifts and raise levels to near capacity. And forget about building anything from The Spirit of Ecstasy somewhere else, Müller-Ötvös saying, "Rolls-Royces are built in Goodwood."
Rolls-Royce to auction first Dawn in America for charity
Fri, Nov 6 2015Want to get your hands on the first new Rolls-Royce Dawn to reach North America? The automaker will auction off the first of its new convertibles in the US at the Naples Winter Wine Festival in January. All proceeds will go to charity. The Dawn is the new drophead counterpart to the Ghost and Wraith. The four-seat convertible features a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 good for 563 horsepower and 575 pound-feet of torque, channeled to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission for a 0-62 time of under five seconds. It's a suitable foil to the likes of the Bentley Continental GTC and Mercedes-Benz S-Class convertible. Rolls-Royce introduced the Dawn at the Frankfurt Motor Show just a couple of months ago, and will begin arriving at dealers in April. The example pictured here will be the first to arrive in North America. It'll be outfitted by the Bespoke division in Arctic White with a Deep Red roof and a corresponding interior with Indian Rosewood trim and unique treadplates. It's valued at over $400,000, but bidding will start at $335,000 at the wine fest scheduled for January 29-31 at the Ritz-Carlton in Naples, FL. Proceeds from the auction will go towards the Naples Children & Education Foundation.
