Serving as a modern replacement to the classic Silver Cloud III, an age of new technology was pressing on designers at Rolls Royce. Born from these concepts in 1965 were the new Silver Shadows, a full 3 ½” narrower and 7” shorter than its predecessor, featuring a stronger & lighter monocoque chassis fitted with new front disc brakes and independent rear suspension for the first time! The car also featured a high-pressure dual circuit braking system and self-leveling suspension. It came on either a standard wheelbase of 119.5” or long wheelbase stretched another 4 inches.  All while keeping the distinct lines and character traits of Rolls Royce properly represented, and highly collectible today!
We are very excited to offer this 1973 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow LWB saloon finished in classic and always popular White Acrylic exterior over Black leather interior accented nicely with Burgundy piping! Power comes from the tested 6.75L V8 twin-SU carbureted engine mated to the Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed transmission.  Options included air conditioning, power windows, door locks, & front seats, rear window defrost, cruise control, Smiths instrumentation, upgraded Alpine AM/FM/Cassette radio with power antenna, and whitewall tires!
Our example comes from the prominent Kemp Auto Museum collection where its in-house staff of professional curators properly maintained it for both display and minimal use on the road. Always stored in a climate controlled environment, this example most recently received all new braided stainless steel hard brake lines, new soft hydraulic lines, and newer mufflers. Showing only 78, 000 original miles on the odometer and only one repaint from new, this Silver Shadow truly remains original in all the right ways!  The interior showcasing patina typical of the soft Connolly Leathers as it ages all while retaining that genuine Rolls Royce interior aroma!  The interior woodwork finishes of the dash and door panels also show characteristics distinctive of its age with some noted veneer cracking.  Otherwise, it retains all original Triplex window glass and rear seat foot wedges.  Please feel free to call with additional questions before this one is gone!  Thanks for looking!
