 Up for auction is a 1974 Rolls Royce Silvershadow in running condition. This car belongs to a friend of mine who bought the car in 2009 just as a toy to drive around in parades. He bought another Rolls and this one was moved outside to where a tree branch fell on the car and made a little dent on the drivers rear fender and a scratch on the hood as you can see in the pictures. I started storing the car last year for him and it has been sitting in my garage since then. He has finally decided that he has too many cars so he asked me to go ahead and sell this one. The car has always started right up when I have needed to move it, it moves freely. I have only driven it around my neighborhood, I have never had it out on the interstate but it rides well. He had the brakes done shortly before I began storing it, they seem to work fine. I do not know alot about these cars so I tried to take enough pictures so that you can see the condition of the car. As I said, the car starts right up and the transmission engages properly without any issues. I have noticed recently that when you start the car there is blue oil smoke from the exhaust.  I believe this is being caused by oil getting into the combustion chambers because the valve guides have gotten dry due to the car siting  so much and not being run. I also believe that if you took the car and drove it for awhile this problem would clear up. It doesn't leak water or overheat, a couple of the power windows don't work, could be a switch, I don't know. The drivers window works, that really is the only one I have had down. My friend had a CD player put in but he can't find the detachable face plate. There are some cosmetic issues with trim pieces,and the kick panels will need some attention, but overall the car is in pretty good shape for a nearly 40 year old vehicle. The obvious advantage is that the car is drivable and my friend has put a very reasonable reserve on the car. Hopefully you can see from the pictures that the interior and door panels are still in very good condition and the head liner is intact. If you have any further questions I will do my best to answer them. The car is being sold "as is" without any type of warranty being implied or stated due to the age of the car. If you are within 100 miles of my zip code, 30043, I will put the car on a trailer and deliver it for free. If you need the car delivered to a shipper, I will be glad to do that but you must make all the arrangements and the vehicle must be paid for before it will be delivered or dropped off. I will do a $500 non-refundable deposit. Thanks for looking.

Autoblog Minute: New Civic, FCA UAW Agreement, Frankfurt

Fri, Sep 18 2015

FCA reaches a tentative agreement with the UAW, Honda reveals the all-new 2016 Civic, and the Frankfurt Motor Show dazzles us again. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the Weekly Recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] FCA reaches a tentative agreement with the UAW, Honda reveals the all-new 2016 Civic, and the Frankfurt Motor Show dazzles us again. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. FCA reached a tentative labor agreement with UAW leadership. The major focus of the new deal reportedly includes: the eventual elimination of the two-tier pay scale [00:00:30] and pooling worker health care. Now that a leadership agreement is in place, the deal will be sent to FCA's rank-and-file. FCA has about 36,000 hourly employees. We got a first look at the interior and exterior of the 10th-generation Civic. Honda expects the new sedan to dominate the C-segment when it hits dealerships later this fall. Civic coupe, five-door hatchback, Si and Type R will all come later. The 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show is in the books and there was a lot of news to get excited about. [00:01:00] Porsche introduced a fully electric concept car in the Mission E. If they make this car, Porsche could give Tesla nightmares. We also saw SUVs from Jaguar and Bentley. There were two beautiful Italian convertibles from Ferrari and Lamborghini. Meanwhile, Mercedes introduced a concept of their own in the IAA - a vehicle that experiments with adaptable aerodynamics. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday. Plus we'll have some added insight on General Motors' deal to [00:01:30] avoid federal prosecution.

Ghost Coupe to be fastest Rolls-Royce ever

Sun, 05 Aug 2012

Autocar has snapped spy shots of a Rolls-Royce Ghost Coupe, and judging from proportions the car will be so long in front and raked in back that it would make Dick Tracy whistle. We'll get the true story on that at next year's Geneva Motor Show, which is when Autocar says it's due to be revealed, but what's less in question is this: with a 6.6-liter, 600-horsepower V12 and a tauter ride it will be the fastest Rolls-Royce ever.
Weight is estimated to drop by 200 kg compared to its sedan sibling, and its roofline to drop by up to nearly three inches. If the horsepower numbers are correct the shorter and lighter Ghost coupe, with a 69-hp bump over the sedan, will assuredly deliver the "considerably brisker" acceleration promised. Helping matters will be the lowered chassis, larger tires, "mildly sports-orientated" brakes and a suspension tuned to be more aggressive but delivering just as much waftability.
Although it's being called the Ghost Coupe for now, insiders have suggested to the magazine that that it will get its own, bespoke, name, with pricing above the standard sedan but below the extended-wheelbase sedan.

Rolls-Royce gets down to testing new aluminum architecture

Tue, Jan 5 2016

Rolls-Royce is preparing to step – or serenely glide – into modernity. It has a new aluminum architecture under development that's set to underpin all its future products. And now it's giving us a taste of what's to come. Goodwood first announced the new platform in February when it revealed intentions to build its first SUV. Now it's saying the architecture won't just underpin the crossover known tentatively as Project Cullinan – it'll form the basis of every model it makes from 2018 onwards. Rolls is already testing the new platform with mules like the one pictured above. The vehicle would appear to be a Phantom behind a mask, but the way that Rolls has disguised the rear end of the prototype tells us it might be wearing a more wagon-like roofline, the likes of which we'd expect to see on the crossover when it arrives. The company's also been testing its first all-wheel drive system for the same project with another type of test mule entirely. Once Project Cullinan is complete, Goodwood's first SUV will launch into a market filled with high-end products. Porsche is firmly established in the sector, and Range Rover is making ever-more expensive models. Soon Bentley, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Maserati, and Lamborghini will also join the fray, but the Rolls-Royce will likely be the most expensive and most luxurious of them all. ROLLS-ROYCE MOTOR CARS ANNOUNCES FUTURE ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENTS In February 2015, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars announced the development of an all-new aluminium space-frame architecture that will underpin all future Rolls-Royce models arriving in market from early 2018. The company today announced that it has begun the testing phase of this new architecture, with early preparatory activity seeing new engineering mules tested in public around the world. The Architecture of Pure Luxury The future of pure luxury motoring is already taking shape as Rolls-Royce Motor Cars begins testing its new aluminium space-frame architecture which will underpin all future Rolls-Royce model lines. The architecture will arrive in market from early 2018. Engineering mules will be assessed on public roads in various locations around the world. The current testing phase aims to ensure that the new space-frame structure perfectly delivers Rolls-Royce's trademark 'magic-carpet ride' on a variety of surfaces and that it is resilient to extreme weather conditions.
