This Rolls Royce was aquired from an inheritance and is sold as is where is. No reserve auction. Clean california title. No back fees are due. No Smog necessary. This is a 4 door saloon which ran 4 years ago and nothing has been done with it since. It did start and drive then, however we found it was leaking gasoline somewhere around the gas tank area so it was not moved. The muffler was also rusted so it sounds like a muscle car, not like a Rolls Royce is supposed too. The leather is the original hides from 1967 and are in poor shape with exception of the doors, ceiling, and dash which are in good condition. In my opinion, the two front seats need to be reupholstered, the rest is good unless you wanted a show car. The transmission is the factory 4 speed automatic which we believe it to be a General Motors Transmission. The engine is a 6230cc L410 V8. This rolls royce has disc brakes, independent rear suspension. It appears that the self levelling suspension has been replaced as whoever installed the new high pressure hydraulic system, left the old steel tubing right along next to it. There were over 25,000 Silver Shadows made, which is the highest number of all rolls royce to date. This means parts are much easier to obtain. As stated previously, the car has not been started in 4 years, however, all the fluids are good and the car has been parked on clean cement, interestingly, not one drip of oil has fallen on the ground which is pretty amazing. There are a few dents and rust spots on the car here and there, (I would say it needs a paint job) one of the headlights appears to be needing replacement, the air intake on the engine has a small rip right after the air filter. we dont know what has been replaced on the engine but it appears the starter solenoid or relay has been replaced or something because there are newer style wires there. the R12 air conditioning system appears original and we do not know if it works or not. the right rear tail lamp is missing the top portion of the plastic. there are two trim peices on the car that are missing alone with one on the rear of the trunk. the chrome around the car is in good shape with exception to the left front bumper which has rust. (the front bumper is 5 peices so you only have to rechrome one piece.) The glass is all perfect. no chips on the front windshield and the rear windshield has the built in heater core. the back seats both have the picnic style fold out wooden tables. these appear to be in good shape. The wood trim on the dash is average for its age. A nice new coat of laquer would really set it off. The nice thing about all the wood in the car is that it is real solid burlwood, not laminate peices like the new rolls royce's have in them. They are thick and can be sanded down and re lacquered without fear of sanding the wood off. the car has 99,898 original miles on it. It was owned and enjoyed by one person for many years until he passed away. Previous to that, the original owner purchased it at the Rolls royce dealer in Rybrook, Birmingham, England. The car comes with a spare tire and original tire jack. We will help with arraingments for shipping, however, we do not have the means to transport it, therefore arraingments will need to be made to pick it up from Granite Hills, San Diego, California. This car is almost 50 years old so please do not expect a perfect car. This one needs some TLC to get back on the road, but you can rest assured the engine and tranny should be good to go once you fix the above mentioned.

Drive like a prince: Join us for a walk through Monaco's car collection
Fri, Dec 29 2023Small, crowded, and a royal pain in the trunk lid to drive into during rush hour, Monaco sounds like an improbable location for a huge car museum. And yet, this tiny city-state has been closely linked to car culture for over a century. It hosts two major racing events every year, many of its residents would qualify for a frequent shopper card if Rolls-Royce issued one, and Prince Rainier III began assembling a collection of cars in the late 1950s. He opened his collection to the public in 1993 and the museum quickly turned into a popular tourist attraction. The collection continued to grow after his death in April 2005; it moved to a new facility located right on Hercules Port in July 2022. Monaco being Monaco, you'd expect to walk into a room full of the latest, shiniest, and most powerful supercars ever to shred a tire. That's not the case: while there is no shortage of high-horsepower machines, the first cars you see after paying ˆ10 (approximately $11) to get in are pre-war models. In that era, the template for the car as we know it in 2023 hadn't been created, so an eclectic assortment of expensive and dauntingly experimental machines roamed whatever roads were available to them. One is the Leyat Helica, which was built in France in 1921 with a 1.2-liter air-cooled flat-twin sourced from the world of aviation. Fittingly, the two-cylinder spun a massive, plane-like propeller. Government vehicles get a special spot in the museum. They range from a Cadillac Series 6700 with an amusing blend of period-correct French-market yellow headlights and massive fins to a 2011 Lexus LS 600h with a custom-made transparent roof panel that was built by Belgian coachbuilder Carat Duchatelet for Prince Albert II's wedding. Here's where it all gets a little weird: you've got a 1952 Austin FX3, a Ghia-bodied 1959 Fiat 500 Jolly, a 1960 BMW Isetta, and a 1971 Lotus Seven. That has to be someone's idea of a perfect four-car garage. One of the most significant cars in the collection lurks in the far corner of the main hall, which is located a level below the entrance. At first glance, it's a kitted-out Renault 4CV with auxiliary lights, a racing number on the front end, and a period-correct registration number issued in the Bouches-du-Rhone department of France. It doesn't look all that different than the later, unmodified 4CV parked right next to it. Here's what's special about it: this is one of the small handful of Type 1063 models built by Renault for competition.
Even in a down economy, Rolls-Royce is on a roll
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Limited Volume, Big Margins Spell Success
Bigger isn't always better, especially when it comes to selling super luxury. Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös expects the British automaker to again post a record year, despite the economic troubles in Europe and weak growth in both the US and China.
"It is not all doom and gloom out there," Müller-Ötvös explains, noting that the declining sales in Europe and elsewhere have been offset by good performance for the marque in the Middle East, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and Russia.
