Buying or Selling a 1974 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow

When Rolls-Royce released the Silver Shadow in 1965, they changed the way they approached ultra-luxury automobiles. They broke away from their philosophy of releasing hundreds of rare cars every decade, choosing to manufacture more than 30,000 Silver Shadow models instead. This caused the Silver Shadow to be Rolls-Royces most popular and widely-manufactured car of all time. The 1974 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is equipped with a powerful 6750cc V8 Engine which is capable of producing nearly 200 hp and reaching 120 mph. Its designed to be smaller and sleeker than its predecessor, the Silver Cloud, and was virtually identical to the Bentley T1. The Silver Shadow was designed to be as comfortable as it was powerful. The three-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission by General Motors was praised for creating a smoother ride than the four-speed automatic which was used on right-hand drive cars until 68. Another feature that made the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow one of the most comfortable cars on the road was its hydraulic self-leveling rear suspension, which was developed by Citroen.
