1973 Rolls-Royce 6.75 Liter V8 Silver Shadow

Mechanically the car is in fantastic shape. It has been recently work-shopped by Park-Ward with all the hydraulics/braking system reviewed and working well. The engine truly purrs and gear-change is smooth and quiet. The car is very spritely in power which is a good sign of a well cared for and good condition motor. The odometer reads 45,500 miles and although not verifiable, the car is unquestionably a low mileage example. Just a quick review under the bonnet - which was NOT detailed for these photos - is testimony to that. Tyres are near new Hankook 215/75/15 whitewalls, with the hubcaps straight and the stainless steel shiny. As you would expect, it comes with correct jack, tool kit and owner's manual.

The rest of the interior is equally beautiful. Excellent head-liner with carpets like new including those in the boot. Look at the photos of underneath the boot carpet and you will appreciate just how clean this car is. The African burl walnut wood throughout the interior is simply superb. Completely factory original - never refinished - and yet without any of the typical peeling of the clear-coat and no cracks in the clear-coat lacquer finish. Truly quite amazing as virtually any Silver Shadow will show at least a few hairline fractures. This one has ZERO! And, with the beauty of only the best of burl walnut, the grain in this Silver Shadow displays a very intense grain and colour. From rich yellow ochres to rich reds and browns. It is truly stunning.
