This 1969 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Estate Wagon was offered for sale at the 2007 RM Auctions held in Amelia Island, Florida. The car was offered without reserve and estimated to sell between $30,000 - $40,000. It is powered by a 6230cc 90-degree aluminum block V8 engine with twin SU carburetors capable of producing 172 horsepower. There is a GM-sourced Turbo Hydramatic 400 four-speed automatic gearbox and four-wheel disc brakes and the elegant and unique body rides comfortably on the 119.5 inch wheelbase.

The Silver Shadow was introduced at the Paris Motor Show in October of 1965. It was a modern vehicle with a deep heritage and a design that was inspired by years of experience. They featured a monocoque construction, independent suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes. It is believed that 20,605 Silver Shadows were constructed from 1965 through 1977.

This is a very unique vehicle; it is the only one that was converted to estate configuration by its original owner. It has spent most of its life in Florida. It is finished in black over dark gray with a red leather interior. At auction, the car sold for just over the estimated value, fetching $41,800.
