1971 Rolls-Royce Silvershadow
Description
This gorgeous Shadow has travelled just 59,000 miles since new in 1971. It was sold originally by Frank Dale and Stepsons in London, they are a well-known Rolls Royce and Bentley dealer. It has their stickers still clearly attached, and you can see the FD8 number plate etched into the glass. The car was their director's personal car for some time before being sold. Had one private owner in UK and then just two private owners in NZ since arriving here in 1984.
Drives superbly.
Has purpose built tools/parts cupboard in the boot, still with many original old period piece tools.
Has always had original mats over the carpets which are like new. All leather is excellent.
A lovely Rolls Royce to be proud of.
Viewing by appointment. Please get in touch by email, phone, or text, thanks.

Questions & Answers
Hello there. Looks like a cracker. Any rust present and any info on whether the carburetor has been replaced in recent times? Best, Chris ando09 (22 • 8:05 pm, Wed, 17 SepNo rust apart from the usual very minor surface rust that you expect under a car. Will stand any inspection. No replacement of the carburettor that we're aware of. You're welcome to come inspect it Chris, it's very impressive throughout.
