Up for auction is my 1979 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow II. This car is a respectable looking, good running and driving car that you can enjoy as it is and restore it a liitle at a time so you don't have to break the bank all at once. As you can see from the photos the interior is in need of TLC. The leather seats are dry and cracked, the carpet is worn, and the wood needs to be refinished. It is mechanically sound with a strong, smooth running 6.75L V8 and a transmission that shifts perfectly. The brakes are a bit low, but stop the car adequately. There is some bubbling underneath the everflex top and the passenger side front floorboard is rusted. The older repaint shows well and still holds a good shine. The trunk locking mechanism is broken but the trunk can still be opened and closed easily. I am selling the car as True Mileage Unknown because the odometer only works sporatically, however the speedometer works all of the time. With all the negatives being said, the big positve thing about this car is that you can enjoy a vintage Rolls Royce for the price of a used Hyundai. It will look great in your driveway and everyone you sit next to at a stoplight will think you're important!. The car is being sold with NO RESERVE which means the last bidder will own the car! I have described all of the defects that I know of and please bear in mind that you are buying a 34 year old car so don't expect it to be perfect. Please be advised this is an as-is private sale with no gaurantees of any kind. If you are the winning bidder you will need to send a certified check or money order in the amount of $500 within 48 hours of the auction's close with the remainder due in certified funds within 7 days of the end of the auction. You are welcome and encourged if possible to insepct the car in person during the auction. I regret having to sell this car, it's been a lot of fun, but I've lost my winter storage and it won't be long before the snow flies in Central New York. Happy bidding!
