THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owneris this classic 1971 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow sedan!
Finished in slate blue over tan leather hides, this unique find has been with us for the last two decades with documented previous ownership by the late great "old blue eyes"Frank Sinatra. Yes it has been conformed by the Rolls Royce club! It is a running project car being sold with clear and clean original small "pink slip" California title. The last registration was 1996 so it is out of the system with no fees due to the California dmv. Yes, the engine does start and run quite smoothly. [It just received new spark plugs, fuel, and fuel pump]. It is a great restoration candidate or keep it as it is as an heirloom with a large dose of patina! As you see, I have a little collection of British cars, ALL of which are available separately or as a packge deal
THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this Rolls is in poor to fair condition overall with missing front emblem and much fading, cracking and corrosion. The original chrome looks to be solid and intact. It is most definitely NOT a concourse piece...more of a conversation piece I'd say!
THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this car is in poor, tattered, crusty seemingly original condition overall. Yes, it needs full restoration. A couple notes include: 1. Yes the rear seat comes with the car and the original radio fires up. The two driver side doors are jammed shut.
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
While it DOES start and run very smooth, this 1971 Rolls does NOT currently drive and has not been driven for the last 20 years. It MUST be towed from my facility!
