This Fine Rolls Royce has SOLD
1979 Rolls Royce for Sale

Rolls Royce Silver Wraith II for sale with 58K original miles. This low-mileage, strong running Silver Wraith is about as original as they come, has had all maintenance done by the original dealer in Chicago. Finished in Silver Sand over Walnut with Tan Everflex top an Tan leather with Dark Brown piping.

This is a magnificently elegant color combination. The car was originally owned by the owner of Johnson's Publications in Chicago. He used this car specifically for his Palm Springs home. In 1985 he had it brought back to his building in Chicago to be stored in his heated garage under the building.

There it sat covered until 2005 when he had a full tune-up done to the vehicle and new tires. Over time unfortunately there were several door dings and scratches accumulated on the car from people rubbing against it or car doors. These damages are very small and can easily be fixed with minor body work and new paint. The car runs and drives well.

All gauges work. Needs paint and top. Good chrome. There is a dent by the tail light, along with a broken tail light. Correct original tail light included with the car. It even has a great story behind it being originally owned by Mr. John Johnson (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_H._Johnson ). An excellent candidate for a light cosmetic restoration. Clear title in hand and ample documentation including copies of the original new car order, pre-delivery check sheet, window sticker and more.

NEEDS:

  • Paint and Top
  • Seats recovered
  • Brake pump 2 light on, accumulators/pumps should be serviced
  • Left Rear Window got stuck down (We removed door panel and jumped to close), front right inoperable
  • A/C Heat System functions but (presumably) needs charging
  • Radio turns on yet does not produce sound

Positives:

  • Notable ownership/provenance
  • Runs Strong
  • Tight handling and suspension
  • Newer carpet
  • Very Original and unmolested
Thank you for visiting!
