As
a specialist with a long career working with Rolls Royce, we know these cars
extremely well. So when a car comes along that is truly special, we have to
point it out. This Silver Wraith II is such a car and we are fortunate enough
to have a detailed history on it….
In
August 1979, Mr. Manila of Belleville, New-Jersey took delivery of this Silver
Wraith II. He ordered this car from Charles Schmitt & Co in St. Louis, Mo.
He was very specific in his taste. He specified his car ordered in Silver Sand
over Walnut Two tone with twin thin Walnut finelines. Inside he specified Beige
Leather with Dark Brown Piping. The carpets we to be Dark Brown with Beige
binding and a Fawn headlinder. The Everflex roof was to be Beige to compliment
the two tone paint scheme. Mr. Manila also specified the walnut veneer inside
the car be as dark as possible. He had the Toproll covered in Dark Brown
Leather and the underdash and radio surround in Beige leather. Mr. Manila had
his dream car and paid $80, 925 for it.
Some
years later, it was sold to it's second owner. He had purchased it in 1986 to
keep at his home in Palm Beach. He used it for his visits to The Breakers and
Mar A Lago where he was a member of both clubs. Always maintained to the highest
standards, this is one of the finest driving examples we have ever encountered.
The
month prior to our purchasing it, he spent over $5, 000 having the braking
system serviced. We also have records of him putting in a new AC control unit
and regular servicing.
We
purchased this car from an agent of the second owner. We sold it to a collector
in Las Vegas just over a year ago. He has since decided to liquidate his
collection and gave us the opportunity to own this Silver Wraith II once again.
Being that we loved this car so much, we were happy to buy it back. In the past
year the following work has been done to it:
· Oil change and lube
rear axle
· Repair passenger side
rear view mirror control
· Install Rebuilt
Alternator
· Replace Air Pump
· Bleed Rear Self
Leveling valve
· Rebuild Self-leveling
valve
· Flush coolant
· Change Transmission
fluid
To
get this Silver Wraith II ready for sale, we sent it to our Rolls-Royce
specialist. We told him to look at every detail to make this car as turnkey as
possible. In an effort to do so, we performed:
· Fit new accumulator to
frame line to accumulator housing
· Overhaul and refit #1
brake Accumulator housing
· Overhaul both rear
brake fluid reservoirs, clean filter, fit new seals, bleed brakes and refill
· Fit 2 new door mirror
gaskets
· Check all lights, fluids, tire pressures, and filters
Its
obvious this previous owner put as much car and attention into this Silver
Wraith II as the previous owners before him.
Prior
to our purchasing this Silver Wraith II, we had our local Rolls-Royce expert, they verified all the reported work had been done, and only needed a few minor
things. This is a Rolls Royce that is without compromise. It still retains its
lambswool rugs and rear foot rests and all are in exceptional condition.
Included
with the purchase of this Rolls Royce are all of these original accessories:
· Complete set of
owner's books and owners leather case
· Included are the
owners manual, service book, warranty book, radio owners manual, AC hang tag, Radio operation hang tag, list of dealers, original tire warranty book
· Full set of lambswool
rugs in exceptional conation
· Rear seat foot rests
· 2 master keys
· Full and complete tool
kit-appears to be unused
· Jack
· Available service
records
· Available build
records and copy of the window sticker.
This
is one of the most complete and original examples we have seen. This is the
most desirable of Rolls-Royce sedans. The Silver Wraith II has 4
additional rear seat legroom as well as a smaller rear window over the standard
Silver Shadow. We have driven this car almost 200 miles in the past week and it
is performing without flaw. It also has the coldest Air conditioning we have
ever seen in this generation.
For
the Rolls-Royce enthusiast and collector, this is a Silver Wraith not to pass
on. Everything in the car works as it should and there are no modifications.
Even the original radio and antenna work perfectly.
We
have over 120 photos in this listing. Wait for the page to fully load to you can view all of them. We also have
records of all of the service work noted in this listing, as well as build
records, window sticker and other documents provided from the Rolls-Royce
Foundation.
