1976 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I, Beautiful car in fair to good condition, everything is original Powered by a V8
engine paired to a 3 speed automatic transmission. The car has 26,952 original miles.
BODY: The overall body condition is an 8-9 with two small minor dents. One on the leading edge of the left rear
wheel well opening and the other on the right rear fender at and below the side running light. The paint is
scratched on the right front passenger door with no other paint scratches. I expect the dents can be removed using
paintless dent removal. All of the glass is in excellent condition.
PAINT: The overall paint condition is a 3-4. I found one deep scratch on the right front passenger door. Most of
the horizontal surfaces show light cracking much like lacquer paint used to do in times past. There is some
discoloration on the hood and trunk. I believe this paint is two-stage either acrylic or urethane? Given the body
is in such great condition, I believe a respray of the car with very minimal bodywork is needed.
TOP: The vinyl top needs a complete replacement. There is evidence of surface rust under areas that are exposed but
I could not find any areas that were rusted through. Somewhat normal for vinyl tops that are 45 years old.
CHROME: The chrome is in very good condition. An exception would be some light pitting on the front bumper and
light scratches on the rear bumper. The rear bumper rubber on the left side is damaged and will need to be
replaced.
DASH/INSTRUMENTS: The overall dash is in good condition. The area of the ignition switch has most of the paint
chipped off from the key ring. There are two radios both am/fm in the car. There is also evidence that the car may
have been equipped with an early mobile phone mounted between the front seats. There are4 small holes and a large
hole in the console consistent with a radio/telephone in addition to a cellular antenna on the right rear quarter
panel. Due to the battery/not running issue I was unable to test any of the instruments or features.
INTERIOR/UPHOLSTERY: The seats are free of any tears and are not damaged in any way. The dash cap has a couple of
scratches as does the right A pillar that look like an animal may have caused them. The door upholstery is also
complete and without tears or blemishes. The wood garnish finish is showing cracking and some of the urethane is
chipping off of a couple of doors and is faded on the other doors. The bottom windshield garnish is pitted. I
believe all 5 garnish pieces will need resurfacing. The headliner is intact and in good condition. The package tray
shows evidence of staining and will need attention. Carpeting seems good in all areas except under the driver’s
footwell. I found a plastic for sale sign under the floor mat and it had trapped a significant amount of
moisture/heat, (muffler directly below?) causing some of the floor insulation and soundproofing to deteriorate.
There are two remaining very thick floormats in the trunk; one is fairly faded and the other is in fair condition.
TIRES/HUBCAPS: The hubcaps are in good condition with little to no rash on any. The tires are Michelin and have
excellent tread.
TRUNK: The carpeting is in pretty good shape except for the piece that covers the battery compartment. The lower
area of battery area carpeting is deteriorating and will have to be repaired or replaced. The tools that come with
the car are mostly available except for the case that holds them. The jack is included and stored in the trunk
area.

First Dawn from Rolls-Royce raises $750k in charity auction
Sat, Feb 6 2016Even for a Rolls-Royce, $750,000 seems like a lot of money. But that's how much one customer paid this past weekend for the privilege of acquiring the very first example of the new Dawn convertible. And we're glad to report that the the money is going to a good place. Rolls-Royce introduced the Dawn this past September at the Frankfurt Motor Show as the convertible counterpart to the Ghost sedan and Wraith coupe. It's set to take on the likes of the Bentley Continental GTC and Mercedes S-Class Cabriolet, packing a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 good for 563 horsepower and 575 pound-feet of torque up front and a folding fabric roof over its four-seat cabin. The company's Bespoke division set up this particular example in Andalusian white, with a deep red roof, red coachline, and a corresponding interior in red and white with Indian rosewood paneling and special treadplates. Valued at over $400,000, the vehicle was donated for the charity auction at the Naples Winter Wine Festival held this past Saturday to benefit the Naples Children & Education Foundation. The winning bid of $750,000 was placed by insurance mogul and hedge fund manager Julian Movsesian, pictured inset at left with Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos. He'll take delivery in April from the dealership in Naples before anyone else gets theirs. Over the same weekend in Arizona, an Acura NSX sold for $1.2 million, a COPO Camaro for $300k, and Jay Leno's Harley-Davidson edition Ford F-150 for $200k – all of them the first of their kind, and all benefiting charitable causes.

Rolls-Royce commissions a Faberge egg
Tue, Oct 23 2018What you see above, is probably the equivalent of the movie The Avengers, but for the ultra-filthy-rich. It's the ultimate crossover of luxury brands, Rolls-Royce, and the famed jewelry company Faberge. It's a special egg made by the jeweler that's themed around the luxury car builder. And naturally, it's an "Imperial Class" egg. This means it's similar in size, complexity and quality to the original 50 made for the Russian royal family, the very ones that helped make Faberge so famous. It's also only the second to be commissioned, since. The other was commissioned by a Middle Eastern jewelry group. The egg is quite modern and simple in design. It stands about 6 inches tall, and it weighs nearly a pound. A rock crystal Spirit of Ecstasy sits in the middle, surrounded by arcing arms. Each arm is made of rose gold with 390 carats of amethyst and 10 carats of white diamonds. The whole egg sits on a machine-turned white gold base with a purple enamel coat. Like many Faberge eggs, this has mechanical workings. Pressing a lever causes the many arms to descend, making the Spirit of Ecstasy visible. The egg will be on display at Faberge's London store this December for the public to see. After that, Rolls-Royce says it will be heading for the home of a private collector of both Rolls-Royce and Faberge creations.

Question of the Day: What's the greatest British car ever?
Fri, Jul 15 2016The British automotive industry has produced everything from high-production econo-commuters to staggeringly luxurious oligarch-wagons, along the way winning plenty of races and building plenty of beautiful machines. The original Mini led directly to the past half-century of transverse-engine, front-wheel-drive cars built everywhere, the MGB put the sporty little convertible into everyone's reach, and the Morris Oxford became the most beloved motor vehicle in India. So many to choose from, but we want you to pick one. What will it be? Related Video:
