1973 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow 2-tone Scots Pine over Larch Green (metallic)

Price:
$18,800
Summary:
Used 1973 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Green
Location:
Springfield, IL
Description:

This is a gorgeous presenting Silver Shadow sedan finished inrarely seen 2-tone Scots Pine over Larch Green. There would only bea few such cars in this colour combination in the USA. It hashand-painted gold fine lines to the waist-rails and hubcap beautytrim rings. The interior is finished in light tan Connolly leatherwith contrasting light green Wilton wool carpets and matchingmouton overlays. The entire combination is stunningly gorgeous. Themost amazing thing about this Silver Shadow is she is entirelyfactory original in every respect. 100% original factory paint -not a single body panel repainted since she left the factory. Thisis almost unbelievable as almost all Silver Shadows have had to berepainted at least once since new. Even more amazing for a metalliccolour which rarely "makes the distance" after 50 odd years. Andyet, the paint finish remains shiny and lustrous. Even the goldhand-painted fine lines are original! The car, of course, has marksand blemishes as you would surely expect including the infamouslead-wiping marks as seen on all Silver Shadows, most notable atthe base of the "A" pillars and the sides of the "C" pillars.Because the car is all original we would prefer not suggestrepainting these areas. Notwithstanding, and I reassure, the paintpresents with a beautiful shine and lustre. And, it doesnt stopthere. The entire interior is also original. The light tan Vaumolhides, unique to Connolly and Rolls-Royce of the era is entirelyfactory original. It is important to understand that Vaumol was aspecial hide developed by Connolly whereby it is originallycoloured and then (still in hide form) a dark burnisher rubbed intothe leather facing so that the natural pores and creases of theleather absorb the darker colour. The end result is an exquisiteantique looking leather that highlights the natural finish. In someways a bit like an old Chesterfield couch. Please take a look atthe close up photos below and in the link. It is unfortunateConnolly ceased this process in the mid-eighties as some new carbuyers did not realise this was what the leather was supposed tolook like.
