Here is a really fine and original example of a Silver Shadow II. Finished in stunning 2-tone Willow gold over Olive with unique olive and cream fine lines to the waist-rails and beauty rings. The interior has very handsome and rare light olive Connolly hides with contrasting olive/gold Wilton wool carpets with matching olive piping. The same light olive green/gold carries through to the boot. The body on this Shadow II is very straight and the paint is shiny and lustrous. The car was repainted at some stage. I am assuming some 15-20 years ago and presents stunningly. Please remember, most Silver Shadows, no matter how well looked after, were in need of repaint by the time they reached 30 years of age as the “single stage” paint technology used back then resulted in premature fading. The car has since been repainted in clear over base so longevity of its current high lustre state is assured. It was a very high end and quality paint job. When you look down the sides of the car, they are very straight and true. The paint presents beautifully with only very minor marks at the base of the “A” and “C” pillars (typical lead-wiping joints) and imperfections here and there from use, but consistent with a low-mileage car. Certainly, it needs nothing other than a wax from time to time.
