1968 ROLLS-ROYCE SILVER SHADOW DROPHEAD COUPÉ - History:
Unveiled in 1967, the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Drophead Coupé is the official convertible version of the Silver Shadow, built by the prestigious coachbuilder Mulliner Park Ward. Produced in very limited numbers, it is now one of the rarest and most sought-after models in the Rolls-Royce range from that era.
Based on the Silver Shadow’s monocoque platform, it is powered by the famous 6.2-litre Rolls-Royce V8 engine, paired with an automatic gearbox and the sophisticated hydraulic suspension and braking system licensed from Citroën, offering an exceptional level of comfort.
