The Silver Wraith II just like the Silver Shadow Long Wheelbase can't be identified at the front side. Only the wheel covers betray that it deals with a Silver Wraith II. The everflex covered roof is standard on the Silver Wraith II. Picture: LRX35463 from 1978.
The lengthening of 4 inches benefits only the rear passengers and is visible on the lengthened rear doors. Picture: LRK35652 from 1979.
The American Silver Wraith II just like the American Silver Shadow II has the petrol filler door in the left C-pillar and has kept the side-marker lamps. Picture: LRL39353 from 1980.
