Vehicle Detail
1974 Rolls RoyceSilver Shadow ** NO RESERVE ** Description: This RHD car is burgundy in color with a tan top and chamois interior, it is completely original as far as I can tell except for a radio upgrade. At some point in the past it has been repainted and wood has been refinished. The cars serial number is SRH19979. It carries an Alberta title, the title is clear and normal status. Reason for selling: I currently have five Rolls Royce cars and find that because I only use them in the summer that the convertible is the only one that gets driven, as a result I will be selling at least three of the others perhaps four. Mechanical: The car drives well, it stops starts and steers as it should, there is no indication of excessive oil use and the transmission shifts properly. Even after sitting for long periods of time it starts well. The tires are as new, I have not tried the air conditioning but the belt is still in place. I'm not saying the car is perfect but I would trust it to go on a long road trip. Body: The body is in good condition with no sign of rust, the chrome is complete and in good condition, the floors and trunk appear to be very good as do the rockers and wheel openings. Last winter I backed it out of my heated garage to clean up, it was a cold day and the rapid temperature changed caused the lacquer paint to crack badly on the rear fenders and trunk lid, there is a long key scratch on the left side and although from a distance the paint appears to be very nice, it does need to be redone. There is no body work need outside of a minor door ding or rock chip. The doors, hood and trunk lineup nicely and open and close as they should. The Everflex top is in great condition, all the glass is good without cracks or bruises. Interior: The interior is in exceptional condition, the chamois leather is very nice the headliner is perfect and the wood was professionally restored, the dash pad is very good. The foot rest are present and there are floor mats to protect the carpet. The door panels are excellent. Overall: This is an unrestored car that has been well cared for, once again it is not perfect but if your looking for a Rolls Royce that won't cost more than you house then this may be the car for you. I have not had to do any repairs to the car since I bought it two years ago, its a pleasure to drive and and an investment you will be proud to own and display. All older cars need some attention this car is no exception, it will need paint at some point in the future but is presentable and enjoyable as it is. I'm offering the car unreserved because I'm serious about selling it and if I put a reserve on it at what I feel it is worth or what I paid for it, it may not sell. Location: The car is located just outside of Salmon Arm, British Columbia, about 3 hours from the US border. If you are a buyer from outside of Canada I will help with importation as I am familiar with US and overseas procedure for importation. I can in many cases help arrange a shipper, but this is time consuming so I will only try to get a quote for the winning bidder, however the Rolls runs well and a road trip in British Columbia might be a great way to spend some time this summer if you want to drive it home. Payment: Cash in person or bank to bank wire transfer is acceptable. Payment must be received within 7 days of the close of the auction NO EXCEPTIONS. I can store the car at no charge for several months if needed. Scammers: I've heard it all don't waste my time or yours. If you have less than 10 feedback please contact me after you bid so I can confirm that you are in fact a serious buyer Feel free to call me at 250-515-1110 or by email at bsingbeil@msn.com Thanks for looking!!!
