1977 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow 2
Highlights
- Painstakingly restored by the current owner, who has owned the car for fifteen years
- Maintained by Menegatto - a renowned Rolls Royce specialist in Florence
- Registered with the ASI and awarded a Certificate of Historic Significance
The Attractions
Introducing monocoque construction, independent rear suspension and disc brakes, the Silver Shadow represented a departure from previous Rolls-Royce models and was a huge commercial success both at home and abroad.
Here we have an Italian example that has been lovingly cared for by its current owner over the past fifteen years and has received a complete restoration and has been carefully and painstakingly maintained since. It is registered with the ASI and has a Certificate of Historical Significance, along with the original owner's manuals in their leather case. The seller reports that everything works properly and the car is very pleasant to drive, so it will be ready to be enjoyed once it has been serviced again.
