Perhaps no other car defined hand built luxury more than Rolls Royce. Their style, luxury and confidence has defined Rolls Royce motor cars since 1906. This tradition transcended all models as they evolved with the times and continued to set the premium luxury standard year after year. The Silver Shadow was Rolls Royce's most innovative model to date. It featured independent rear suspension, automatic level control and disc brakes all around. The new unibody construction resulted in more room for passengers, easier access for storing luggage and a drastically reduced of height and weight. The 8 cylinder 90 degree V-configuration of the power plant features aluminum heads fed by twin SU carburetors, this is hooked to a three speed automatic transmission and rear wheel drive.
The one owner, 1969 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow offered here is just out of long term proper storage from an estate in New York. The car features just 35 895 original miles and has been garage kept and consistently maintained since new. As a result, this 46 year old, Black over Gray Leather interior, Silver Shadow sits in very original condition showing no signs of damage, paintwork or corrosion. The exterior paint appears to be all original showing very nicely for its age, the chrome and trim are near excellent and the original underside of the car is quite remarkable as well. The original interior features excellent wood, bright work and a near perfect dash. The leather seats and arm rests show some wear consistent with use, age and brand of the vehicle, we chose not to dye the seats so to preserve its originality. The trunk area is very nice, still retains its original carpet lining, jack and spare. Mechanically, this is one of the best sorted Silver Shadows we have had. It features a exhibiting all the smoothness and ride quality that defined Rolls Royce. Our inspection also confirmed very good electrical system; windows, seats, lights, turn signals etc. are all in working order. The a/c compressor kicks on and blows cool, needs a charge. All is all, this is most likely one of the finest original, low mile original examples of one of the finest Marques known in the automotive world. What a great opportunity to acquire an original example of one of the most stylish sedans produced, not to mention one of the coolest hood ornaments to grace a vehicle. Call or email for more info
