Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over 100 large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a dealer will post all but the most flattering of professionally finished photographs. We prefer to post the many photos taken of the car. in sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight. in order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree. West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely striking and obviously exceptionally well maintained and very collectible example of this rare and last year of the legendary US LHD and Long Wheel Base 'small chrome bumper' Rolls Royce Silver Shadows. originally owned for many years by a renown Beverly Hills Jewelers family and serviced at the renown 'Scott Motors'. Rolls Royce independent specialists of Los Angeles. CA and sold to its most recent Newport Beach. California owner in 1990 with some 55K original miles and who serviced the car primarily at 'Swedish American Imports' of Costa Mesa. CA with all service records available and with a current 64K original miles!This is a remarkably well maintained southern California 1972 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow with only 64K original miles in its original 'Acrylic White' factory color paint and a striking 'Royal Blue' 'Connolly' leather hides interior and a matching 'Everflex' roof and with striking chrome Rolls Royce hubcaps and full Fawn carpeting and original Rolls Royce rear foot rests. The original factory color paintwork is in absolutely stunning condition and this is quite likely one of the finest example's cosmetically that we have yet to come across with all the chromework. including the Rolls Royce grille. in absolutely outstanding and virtually flawless condition throughout! The interior is also in virtually completely original condition throughout with it's original leather seats and walnut woodwork. The leather dashboard is also original and in exceptional condition (always garaged from the sun) and the original mohair wool headliner is still virtually as new. The original and magnificent burled walnut woodwork is also in very fine condition throughout. All the power options and electric windows are working as they should as is the air conditioning. This particularly fine example was obviously always well maintained with full service history and records dating back to 1988 and showing well over $32K in completed preventive maintenance over the years. These cars are not slow and the engine purrs like a kitten. never stalls or idles rough and is extremely reliable - there is plenty of power to pull away at the lights and it cruises at high speeds with absolute ease. The transmission shift is almost imperceptibly smooth and the temperature always remains cool. The Silver Shadow cost an almost impossibly expensive $19. 00 when introduced in 1965. more than three times as much as its contemporary US luxury sedan. the Cadillac Sedan de Ville and yet it was an absolute sensation with everyone from heads of state to captains of industry and celebrities around the world wanting to be seen owning one! Despite the increased production from Rolls Royce's earlier models. demand could not be met and there was a two year waiting list meaning that some enterprising individuals ordered. purchased and immediately resold these cars at a profit to someone lacking the patience for Crewe's two year wait! Rolls Royce eventually increased production to meet demand and by the end of the Silver Shadow run in 1980 there was a plentiful supply of used models available which has until recently kept the market prices down on these luxurious cars. But with fewer and fewer unabused and well maintained models being left available. with many having fallen victim to negligent owners who deferred the necessary maintenance. a stunning and obviously well maintained example like this particular car is sure to prove a very astute investment for any classic Rolls Royce or Bentley enthusiast. Most enthusiasts will agree that a good rule of thumb with any Silver Shadow is to buy the best you can afford! It is truly a sensual car that you can drive with your fingertips. smooth and relatively silent. it's thoroughly therapeutic for both drivers and passengers. The delightful precision action of the electrically powered steering column gear change and the ultra light weighted power steering allows one to park this 5000lbs of pure luxury with literally one finger and this long but actually quite slender car is anything but ponderous thanks to it's torque and brilliant turning radius! This particular model drives particularly well and must be driven to be fully appreciated. Without a doubt you will look long and hard to find a finer example of this rare and very collectible and super striking last year US LHD Long Wheel Base small chrome bumper model 1972 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow with only 64K original miles. obviously always garaged with no signs of any accidents and no rust and always owned since new by obviously only very particular owners - never abused! For those who are unfamiliar. Rolls Royce no longer exists as it had for over one hundred years. This is the last in the original line of cars hand built in the legendary Rolls Royce factory in Crewe. England with a quality and craftsmanship that far surpasses that of today's mass produced models with many BMW parts - this is indeed a rare opportunity to own a piece of automotive history. from a time when Rolls Royce was truly building the world's finest automobiles - a great investment for the Rolls Royce enthusiast or collector or simply an outstandingly striking example of a very rare and unusual looking Rolls Royce for the discerning luxury classic car owner!For further information contact West Coast Classics through EBay or on 310-399-3990 during regular California business hours.
