Delivered new by special order to San Francisco, California, this fine Silver Dawn has remained in California ever since, while thoughtfully used and meticulously maintained by two long-time owners. As Works chassis card documents validate, it was originally finished in Metallic Dual Gray, with red Connolly leather interior, radio, the optional automatic transmission, special Wilomot-Breeden Overrider bumpers, sealed beam headlamps and dual fog lamps. An era-correct, rare and attractively designed chrome luggage rack was fitted to the roof and adds a stylish panache.
Purchased by the second owner in 1976 - a Rolls-Royce specialist and Pebble Beach Concours judge - he enjoyed displaying his Silver Dawn, competing and winning in various car club and RROC events. Eventually he sent his car to a marque specialist where it was correctly prepared and re-sprayed in correct Rolls-Royce Mason Black lacquer enhanced with fine red hand-painted coach line striping. The original red leather upholstery was retained, and shows a lovely patina, a reflection of its originality and careful use. The original cabinetry - hand-built of seasoned hard wood and veneered in polished burled Circassian walnut - was preserved as well, and the original West of England wool cloth headliner and trim remains in situ.
The Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn has proven to be among the most reliable cars ever built, regardless of marque. Still retaining its original engine and transmission, complete with fitted hand and road tools, original owner's handbook and volumes of original build documents and maintenance records, this Rolls-Royce is impressive in every way. If a serious buyer is seeking an honest and well cared-for Rolls-Royce, this is the one to choose.
