1979 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Ii Base Sedan 4-door 6.7l Masons Black on 2040-cars
Sunnyvale, California, United States
|
I'm selling my 1979 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. I have owned it for over ten years. The car was repainted in 2004 in two stage paint in the original Masons Black color. The brakes were serviced about 500 miles ago. I had the carburators rebuilt around that time as well. The car is a US left hand drive model that has spent most of its life in California. It does not have any rust to my knowledge. No dents, dings. In the pictures you will notice that the car has aftermarket wheel covers. I have a set of four original RR stock/original wheel covers that are included in the sale as well. The paint is in nice and presentable condition. No rust, dents or dings in the body of any kind.
There are, however, a few items that should be looked at. Exhaust needs repaired and or muffler(s) replaced. The AC/fan does not work, the electric front seats are intermittent, the odometer does not work, the windshield wipers do not work. Power locks and windows operate fine. All exterior and interior lights are in working condition. Car runs, drives, brakes and shifts fine, always passes the Calif. biannual Smog Check with flying colors, is currently registered in California and can be driven just fine as is. The wood is in decent shape but please take into account that this is a 35 year old car so it's not showroom fresh. Minor cracking and fading of varnish shows in certain areas on dashboard and top of door panels. The leather on the seats and door panels is in very good condition without tears, cracks or repairs needed. The headliner is in very good condition with no work needed of any kind. I have a low reserve on this car. If you have any questions, please send me an email with a phone number and I will email or call you right away. Happy bidding! |

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Rolls-Royce releases sketch of Phantom Drophead Coupe Bespoke Waterspeed Collection
Wed, 05 Feb 2014A limited-edition Rolls-Royce Phantom is something of an oxymoron. The company only sold 3,630 cars last year, and even fewer of those were its flagship Phantom. However, that isn't keeping the company from regularly revealing even more limited editions of its already hyper-exclusive cars. This is precisely the case with the new Phantom Drophead Coupé Bespoke Waterspeed Collection, a forthcoming model limited to 35 examples.
The special models are inspired by a famous speedboat race on September 1, 1937, between the United States and Great Britain on Lake Maggiore on the Swiss-Italian border. The British fielded the Bluebird K3 hydroplane boat powered by a massive supercharged V12 Rolls-Royce R-Type engine with Sir Malcolm Campbell at the helm. All that displacement shot the sleek watercraft to 129.5 miles per hour, claiming a new world waterspeed record in the process.
For the special commemorative Drophead Coupé model that celebrates "a seminal act of British daring and endeavor," Rolls-Royce is finishing the convertible in Maggiore Blue paint with a brushed steel hood and tonneau cover, along with inlaid wood trim. Rolls is not announcing an official release date or price for the special cars yet, but they are going on sale before the end of the year. Scroll down for the whole story about the car's inspiration.
Corniche Comeback: New Rolls-Royce coupe spotted testing
Wed, 25 Jul 2012It's been over a decade since Rolls-Royce last offered a Corniche, which was the company's name for its unibody coupe and convertible models since the early 1970s. But from the looks of what our photographers recently snapped in Munich, that drought may soon be over.
What they've spied is the 2014 Rolls-Royce Corniche coupe, a forthcoming model based on the Rolls-Royce Ghost. Never mind the fake door handles and rear doors on the test mules, the production Corniche will have just two suicide doors like its big brother the Phantom coupe.
Powertrain will probably be carried over from the Ghost sedan, meaning a 6.6-liter V12. We suspect that BMW will roll out its new Roller at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2013. Until then, our spies will keep their eyes open for more prototypes, including the oft-rumored convertible.
