1966 ROLLS ROYCE SILVER SHADOW I ONE OWNER
This 1966 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I (Chassis: SRX1384) is an unrestored, original one-owner with approximately 52k original miles. This example was maintained by the original owner for more than 50 years until we purchased it several years ago. The original owner purchased the car new in London and used it for 30 days over there before shipping it to the United States the vehicle was registered in California and it was used over the weekends and stored in a climate-controlled garage when not in use. She had several customizations done by the Rolls-Royce factory, which are all documented with paper mail. It remains unmodified and is powered by a 6.2-liter V8 paired with a Turbo Hydramatic 400 transmission. The car is now being offered with a clean Florida title, original tools, all service documents since new, and documentation of the communication with Rolls Royce and the original owner during the build process of the car, we have the original invoice and sticker price with the actual cost of the vehicle back in 1966. This is a perfect example of a car collector due to the extensive historical documentation this vehicle has, and I think this example is the most well-documented Rolls Royce on the market.
The beige paint is completely original and shows minor fading in some areas. The single-stage paintwork used by Rolls-Royce in the 1970s shows some areas of thinning paint and discoloration. A minor mishap recently resulted in a scuff on the rear driver-side wheel arch. No structural damage occurred, only paint damage. All body panels are straight with no signs of previous accidents. Hubcap beauty rings were hand-painted in pink to match a custom pink stripe that was ordered from the factory by the original owner. Factory beige leather is creased and has patina, though it is absent of rips or tears, and has never been reupholstered.
The dash presents well and the original push-button radio with factory-installed 8-track remains. The A/C is said to blow air but not cold, and all lights, gauges, and electronics are thought to be working properly. Burl wood on the dash is intact but shows some normal cracking in the lacquer that is easy to repair.
Under the hood, the 6.2 liter V8 was good for 172 horsepower when new and it does, indeed, run and drive smoothly and the vehicle only needs TLC.
