This vehicle is a turn-key luxury ride that is in MINT condition, a ‘smidgen’ short of concours.  It is a 2-owner vehicle that has been impeccably well-preserved, with insurance, registration, & inspection always kept current:  the first 17 years housed in Newport Beach, CA; subsequently, transported to and garaged at a collector’s home on the North Fork of eastern Long Island, NY.  The maintenance documents available for this vehicle confirm that years of driving pleasure are in your future!

N.B. The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II (and, its twin, the Bentley T2), was introduced in 1977 and remained in production until 1980. It cost over $65,000 when new. The notable high-styling includes a Connolly leather interior, lambs-wool carpet, walnut dash and door trims, and full instrumentation.
