The Silver Shadow marked a major modernization for Rolls-Royce when it debuted in 1965. It was the company's first car to use a unibody chassis, a significant change from its traditional body-on-frame construction. The model also featured advanced technology for the era, including a Citroën-licensed high-pressure hydropneumatic suspension system, four-wheel disc brakes, and independent rear suspension. Early cars used a 6.2L V8, which was replaced by the larger 6.75L V8 in 1970.
Buying Tips
- The hydropneumatic suspension and braking system is notoriously complex and expensive to repair. Check for a firm brake pedal, level ride height, and any signs of fluid leaks from the spheres, pumps, or lines.
- Despite its upscale image, the unibody chassis can rust significantly. Inspect the sills, jacking points, wheel arches, and the areas around the front and rear glass for corrosion.
- Interior restoration is costly. Examine the Connolly leather for cracks and shrinking, particularly on the dashboard top, and check the wood veneer for delamination or faded lacquer.
- A comprehensive service history from a known specialist is more important than low mileage. These cars don't tolerate deferred maintenance, and a thick folder of receipts is the best indicator of a well-kept example.
