For Sale: 1977 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow in Carey, Illinois

Vehicle Description

A simply stunning example of a Silver Wraith II. Finished in Shell grey (silver) with Royal Blue fine lines to the waist-rails. The interior has handsome rich Royal blue Connolly hides with matching Wilton wool carpets. The same theme carries through to the boot. The roof has an interior matching dark blue Everflex top. With the exception of a short-time caretaker since, this is a 2 owner car from new that has travelled only 36,000 miles! A very elegant colour combination in the desirable long wheel-base configuration and low miles, makes this a breath-takingly beautiful and collectable example. This is an unmolested original one that has been incredibly well maintained since new and presents in excellent condition. It is all original with no modifications - right down to the original Blaupunkt push button radio and Pioneer 8-track cassette player and factory original Yale keys. She is pristinely clean and dry and 100% rust free. The underside of the car looks like a 5 year old example. The body on this Wraith II is very straight and the paint shiny and lustrous. The car is primarily original paint with some minor repaint evident on the bonnet. She presents overall gorgeous. The Everflex vinyl top, standard fitment on all Wraith IIs, is original without any imperfections or bubbling which is otherwise common on these. All original Eveflex tops had a very subtle padding to the mid-section and this one displays this original touch. The interior of this Wraith II looks close to perfect. The dark blue Connolly hide leather is 100% factory original. It is in absolutely outstanding condition with no tears nor fading and very supple and soft - true to its Connolly characteristics (please view the photos where I "scrunch" the leather with my hand). The leather has NEVER been redyed but simply lovingly preserved and is truly delightful. Original non-dyed leather is rare to see these days so this is a huge testament to the car's originality. The burr walnut wood throughout the car is stunning. They are completely original and have not been redone. They are almost flawless (not a word you can use flippantly) and so can easily be described as "excellent condition". The colour is deep, the grain rich and the finish smooth. I personally love the rich ochre grain section that forms like a frame around the clock. Such is the beauty of Mother nature! The head-lining is all original and in perfect condition. This is rare to see as the broadcloth wool tends to get a little stained and yet this car shows none of that. Likewise, is the leather finish to the dash and top-roll. The Wilton wool carpets are in excellent condition, finished with an exquisite set of lambswool mouton in the same colour. The boot (trunk) carpet carries through with the same theme as the cabin and is also in excellent condition. The Silver Wraith II presented here, like all Park-Ward Motors' cars, is subject to our Predelivery Commissioning process which ensures every car sold, is up to date with all major and minor services and any work needed carried out. Important costly items such as the hydraulics and brakes are fully inspected and serviced as required. This includes checking of all the major hydraulics (pumps, valves, accumulators, calipers, rotors. brake hoses) and the system flushed, pressure tested and bled. When completed and shipped, it is ready to drive and enjoy. For the purists who may ask for history and service records, there is none, we're disappointed to say but upon any inspection; under the hood, the underside, inside the doors, there is absolutely no question or doubt in our mind of the low mileage original condition. The white-wall Michelin tyres currently fitted were the first replacement set since the car was new! These will be changed as part of the predelivery Commissioning process, of course, but we wanted to show you just how original the car is. The hubcaps are excellent with no imperfections in the stainless
