Vehicle Description
As one might expect, the finish on the new cars was exemplary, with
Connolly leather interior, lambs-wool carpet, and walnut dash and
door trims, with full instrumentation. The new Shadow was lighter,
faster, and better handling than any Rolls-Royce produced before.
Powered by the 200-hp, 6.2L V-8 from the Silver Cloud III, it runs
nice and smooth. GM's Turbo Hydramatic 350, 3-speed automatic
transmission was standard and makes servicing the transmission a
breeze. Power windows and four-wheel disc brakes were standard, and
the rear suspension was self-leveling, based on the Citroen DS-19
hydraulic/hydrogen sphere system. This Silver Shadow was once owned
by Alan Grant, who was part of Carrol Shelby's race team in the
1965 Championship run. It has been very well cared for and has a
lot of service history and documentation. The 87,952 miles are
actual and the Rolls comes with an Arizona Box A title (actual
miles). The body and paint is in really good condition. The seats,
although showing their age, are not torn or ripped. The dash is
intact but the sun and age have taken a toll on the dash area
closest to the windshield. All in all, the car is in good shape and
would be a great addition to a collection. Rear Disc Brakes,Power
