1972 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. Chassis No. SRA13332. Sold new in 1972 for $25,215.00. Caribbean Blue 950/0683, Double White fine lines, Dark Blue VM-3209 Conolley Leather, Dark Blue Carpets and Grey wool broadcloth headlining. Original chassis/factory records, service and repair records for the last decade of our ownership. Personalized license plates "AVO" will not go with the car (It's portuguese for grandparent). My father bought the Rolls 12 years ago and he and I rebuilt or replaced all hydraulic components, rebuilt carbs, replaced fuel pump, replaced tires, replaced brakes (including all 23 flexible hoses). I have a large history file of receipts totaling thousands of dollars to bring the car to reliable daily driver status and a pleasurable touring automobile. 102,000 miles currently, it had 73 ,000 miles when he purchased it in 2001.
This is not a show car but, a comfortable and competent daily driver and touring car. Everything works including the cruise control and clock. The paint is entirely original and does show wear consistent with 41 years of use. My dad passed away in 2011 and I'm ready to sell now to invest in a earlier model Rolls Royce. There is one small rust area the size of a silver dollar at the base of the right fender just to the rear of the front wheel arch (Pictured), the small replacement panel is available for aprox $125.00. The remainder of the underbody is in great shape. The paint looks great as a 10footer but, should be redone if you want to take the car to the next level. I'm not mutch of a photographer but, have posted some initial photos taken with my daughters camera. If seriously interested, I can have better photos taken of any angle you'd like and send them to you. No warranty, sold as and where is.

2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith
Tue, 17 Sep 2013Wafting In The Fastest And Most Powerful Vehicle RR Has Ever Made
It is said that Rolls-Royce co-founder Sir Henry Royce once proclaimed: "Take the best that exists and make it better: When it does not exist, design it." The second part of that quote is most curious, as the century-old automaker recently introduced an all-new Ghost-based coupe with no apparent peers - a two-door boasting a 624-horsepower, twin-turbocharged V12 with rear-wheel drive and sleek fastback styling.
Yet despite its specifications, it was never planned to be a sports coupe. Rather, the British automaker tells us that it was thoroughly engineered to be, "a car where the sense of arrival and joy of the journey are as important as the canvas upon which it is drawn." Whatever that means.
Ghost Coupe to be fastest Rolls-Royce ever
Sun, 05 Aug 2012Autocar has snapped spy shots of a Rolls-Royce Ghost Coupe, and judging from proportions the car will be so long in front and raked in back that it would make Dick Tracy whistle. We'll get the true story on that at next year's Geneva Motor Show, which is when Autocar says it's due to be revealed, but what's less in question is this: with a 6.6-liter, 600-horsepower V12 and a tauter ride it will be the fastest Rolls-Royce ever.
Weight is estimated to drop by 200 kg compared to its sedan sibling, and its roofline to drop by up to nearly three inches. If the horsepower numbers are correct the shorter and lighter Ghost coupe, with a 69-hp bump over the sedan, will assuredly deliver the "considerably brisker" acceleration promised. Helping matters will be the lowered chassis, larger tires, "mildly sports-orientated" brakes and a suspension tuned to be more aggressive but delivering just as much waftability.
Although it's being called the Ghost Coupe for now, insiders have suggested to the magazine that that it will get its own, bespoke, name, with pricing above the standard sedan but below the extended-wheelbase sedan.
Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II headed to Geneva
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Rolls-Royce is not a brand that replaces its vehicles with any great frequency. It expands its lineup, sure: what started with just the Phantom saloon has since grown to include extended wheelbase models, coupes and convertibles, not to mention the addition of the Ghost, followed by the Ghost EWB and the Wraith fastback. What Rolls does to keep its models fresh, however, is spruce them up with a Series II.
The Phantom family underwent just such a treatment a couple of years ago, and now Goodwood appears to be preparing to do the same with the Ghost. At least, that is, going by this teaser image it released with only the line, "After five years as the cornerstone of Rolls-Royce's sustainable growth success worldwide, this mid-life update is a showcase for the most recent technological advances from Rolls-Royce enrobed in a considered exterior design revision."
The arrival of the Ghost Series II at the Geneva Motor Show this year would put it significantly ahead of schedule for when Rolls updated the Phantom. That model arrived in 2003 and was followed by the Series II in 2012, giving the original a nine-year run virtually unchanged. The Ghost, however, only reached production in 2010, so introducing a Series II now would shorten that lifecycle to just four years.
