1975 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow

Description

This 1975 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow has a hand-crafted robust quality everywhere you look. And rolling opulence also means not skipping all the best luxury features, like air conditioning and power everything. So as you look over the whole well-preserved nature of this sedan, you see that it's all about announcing the upper class has arrived... we'll even promise to keep the secret of how affordable it really is.

The appeal of the walnut brown exterior is as timelessly elegant as the Rolls-Royce name. It has the right look of originality where you can see that there has been proper care and possibly an investment in maintaining a good shine. This is the one company that has always wanted to deliver the coach-built experience, and so they pay careful attention to the body. That's why the lines still look terrific today. The angular hood sets your attention to the Spirit of Ecstasy mascot; the rear fenders has a crisply pointed look; and the tan pinstripe is almost like an unbroken line as runs the full profile of the car. It's a total package that reminds you elegance came as standard, right down to the factory wheel covers that have a color-match insert for the paint and pinstriping.

The craftsmanship continues inside. Rolls-Royce has hand-rubbed wood surfaces and individually stitched leather seats from the finest cow hides. So it's a true treat to have this so original and preserved 45 year later. It's a testament to both good care of this sedan and how true quality endures. True luxury also means letting someone or something do the work for you. That's why there's power windows, power locks, and power front seats. The air conditioning is blowing nice and cold, so you always arrive looking comfortable. Plus, this has terrific vintage touches in this well-preserved interior to impress classic car fans, including a separate 8-track stereo. The rear is also treated to true luxury comfort with supple seating, a fold-down armrest, and plenty of legroom.

The 6.75-liter V8 under the hood is a staple of Rolls-Royce luxury, and this one looks like it's original to the car. The odometer was recently replaced, but the full mileage is believed to reflect only averaging about 1,800 miles annually (80K). So it hasn't led the life of the daily grind. The motor was engineered to always have power in reserve. In true luxury fashion, it's not delivered like a muscle car, but instead more like an express train. This is luxury for trips of all sizes thanks to a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and cruise control. The fully independent suspension glides over rough pavement like a hovercraft, and it stays sure-footed with four-wheel power disc brakes.

The sale comes complete with maintenance records and a full owner's manual packet. This is an exceptionally well-preserved example of the luxury you always wanted. So if you understand timeless elegance, call today!
