When the Rolls-Royce motorcar comes to mind, one thinks of elegance and comfort. The renowned Rolls-Royce ride quality may have been due to the Silver Shadow model which featured a high-pressure hydraulic self-leveling suspension system. The Silver Shadow went on to become Rolls-Royce’s most popular and, subsequently, best-selling model.
This very original 1976 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow long wheelbase (LWB) model looks to be a fine example of a well-kept car. The car is reputed to have come from long-term ownership in Bel Air, California by a U.S. ambassador. This elegant motorcar is finished in British Racing Green with a biscuit interior and a tan Everflex roof; of course, the signature burl wood trim elements add their own established style. It comes with its original blue California license plates and the correct books and tools. This Rolls-Royce looks to have been well cared for, and has a distinctively original appearance.
