Vehicle Detail

This ’81 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit is one beautiful car! With a rare color combination—magnolia on chocolate brown interior—it turns many heads. I’ve owned the car for 17 years and hate to see it go. This car has always been babied and garage-kept. In excellent condition and only 2 owners, the car comes with only 45,952 original miles! You would be hard-pressed to find an ’81 Rolls in this good of shape! Here is a more thorough description of the vehicle: Exterior: As you may know most Rolls-Royces tend to be rust-free because of the aluminum body. That’s certainly the case for this car. To my knowledge the car has never been wrecked. It has an extremely straight frame. The body itself is in near mint condition—no dings, dents, or scratches. You won’t find a Rolls that has a body in better shape! The paint is nearly flawless all around. As you can tell from the photos it is an off white. I believe the proper term for it is “magnolia.” It is a rare color on this style. While most of the paint is flawless, there are some areas that fall short of perfection that the buyer would need to know about. Near the trunk lid and the rear window there’s a tiny chip that’s been filled in (it’s the size of a pebble). There’s another chip between the trunk and the rear bumper (again, it’s probably the size of a small pebble). A small hairline crack in the paint can be found near the front headlight. The chrome is in exceptional shape too. The window trim, bumpers, grill, and mirrors are in near mint condition. The hubcaps are all original and in good shape. A close examination would reveal some slight curb rash and a few minor dings (not noticeable). The actual painted parts of the hubcaps have been repainted and re-pinstriped. The glass is in perfect condition. There are no scrapes or scratches—in mint condition all around.The car comes with a custom fitted Rolls-Royce car cover. Interior: The interior is 100% original and in great shape as well. Starting with the leather…the seats show some sign of wear, but as you can see from the photos, it’s minimal. There is a small tear on the driver’s side seat. The wood is in exceptional shape. One wooden door panel has been re-stained due to wear over time. The burl wood dashboard looks brand new, although some hairline cracks can be identified if examined up close. The carpeting and headliner is in perfect condition. I bought all new floor mats a few years ago. The radio (all original) works and functions extremely well. It does come with a tape player but does not work perfect the last time I checked. Mechanical: The V-8 engine is as solid as they come. The car has always been meticulously maintained by Rolls-Royce certified mechanics. The transmission shifts smoothly and has contains no known problems. The buyer should be aware that the windows do not function (perhaps a fuse?). The exhaust, ignition, AC/heating system, carburetors, and timing belts all run extremely well and smooth. The brakes could use some attention, as well as the tires. The mileage odometer recently quit working. Unless otherwise stated, there are no known mechanic issues with the vehicle. Terms of sale: -Car is sold as-is. I’ve tried to be very thorough in describing this car so the new owner will receive no surprises. Honesty is my policy. As stated above, this car is in excellent condition. For it to be in showroom condition all around, some minor work would need to be done. But nothing of significance as it is in truly exceptional condition! -$500 non-refundable deposit to my PayPal is due within 12 hours of the auction ending. -Buyer must arrange shipping. I’ll assist and be flexible when possible. -My feedback speaks for itself. Please let me know if you have any questions or you want additional photos.
