This Rolls Royce is a Daily Driver. I call her "ROSE". She runs great. Brand new electronic distributor, and tuning of twin, dual, downdraft carbs. Recent Paint job. Looks like wet glass, and has not even been buffed and rubbed out yet..
I retained the original 8 track stereo, but added a JVC sound system ( cd, blue tooth, and Satellite Radio). She is beautiful. Tires are in good shape. Recent replacement of rear CVC joint. I purchased her about 3 years ago, and I have approx. $14,000 invested. not including my labor ( a labor of love)..
She has lambs wool seat covers on front seats, and lambs wool rugs front and rear. ( front seats have worn leather). Headliner is good, with the exception of a few small holes in the area of the rear opera light. ( I covered them with a floral spray of roses). I have yet to charge the air conditioner ( don't need it in my area) , or hook up the cruise control, so I don't know if they work. All electric windows work except for one. (Left Rear) ( I think it is a simple repair). Power door locks work, as well as electric front seats.
I have shown "Rose" at local car shows and at 2 "Concours de Elegans" shows She is a real eye catcher. (2nd place at Sutherlin Blackberry Festival, August 2012)
I have extra parts, as well as orig. tool box, and sales brochure. I also have repair manual in CD form.
She comes with a beautiful "Elgin". Crystal Watch. The watch is very "blingy" and it was a gift which accompanied of this quality auto.
I am willing to deliver for free within 100 miles and then $1.00 per mile for up to 500 miles. Anything over 500 miles is at your expense.

Rolls-Royce confirms Wraith convertible for 2015
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Until a few years ago, the Rolls-Royce product portfolio revolved around one model line, and that was the Phantom. But with the launch of the Ghost in 2010, the Goodwood-based automaker is expanding further. As with the Phantom line, a long-wheelbase Ghost ensued, followed by a coupe in the form of the Wraith. And now, as might have been expected, Rolls-Royce has reportedly confirmed development of a new convertible based on the same platform.
The new cabrio will be based closely on the Wraith, only with a convertible roof. Expect the same 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 that powers the Wraith to carry over with the same 624-horsepower output - the highest of any production Rolls-Royce - but with a bit more weight to push, the convertible ought to be a bit more sluggish off the line than the Wraith's 4.4-second 0-60 time.
We can also expect a higher sticker price, but closer to the Wraith's $320,000 MSRP than the Phantom Drophead Coupe's $470k. Whether Rolls opts to call it the Wraith DHC or use another nameplate entirely remains to be seen, but Autocar reports that the new Rolls cabrio won't arrive until 2015, so we've got a little while to go.
Rolls-Royce to reach 4,000 units this year
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Rolls-Royce is, by nature, an exclusive auto marque, but it has been steadily increasing its sales to the point that it could be looking at 4,000 units by the end of this year, setting a new record for the German-owned British automaker.
You don't even need to go back a decade to find Rolls-Royce sales hovering around the 1,000-unit mark. But that was when Goodwood only offered the Phantom saloon. The subsequent addition of the Phantom DHC and Phantom Coupe helped expand its portfolio, enlarged even further by the addition of the Ghost in 2010, by which time total sales were reaching 3,000 units.
The Spirit of Ecstasy marque has been hovering around the 3,500 mark ever since, but with the Wraith now in the mix and its reach extending into growing markets around the world, Autocar reports that global sales could top 4,000 units this year. (Of course that pales in comparison to one-time sister brand Bentley, which topped 10,000 deliveries last year, but Rolls-Royce typically competes at a higher price bracket.)
Former Princess Diana Rolls-Royce being auctioned for charity [w/video]
Wed, 31 Oct 2012While it isn't that uncommon to see cars belonging to celebrities and dignitaries roll across the auction block these days, this car is a little extra special. This particular 1979 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow was the car that Prince Charles and Princess Diana arrived at the White House in during a visit in 1985. As some added trivia, this was also the visit where Princess Di cut a rug with none other than John Travolta.
Volo Auto Museum will be auctioning off this piece of American and British history on November 9th - exactly 27 years from Princess Di's White House visit. According to the auction listing, this armored Silver Shadow was the official car of the UK's embassy, and it has been valued at around $2 million by the Berman Museum of History. The auction will have no reserve with some of the proceeds going to the Children with Cancer UK charity that Princess Diana started in 1988.
Scroll down for more information about this car and its auction as well as a video showing Prince Charles and Princess Diana arriving at the White House in the car back in 1985.
