Remarks:

Type of car:
Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, II SRH35050

Production of this car:
August 1978

Remarks:
The car is finished in Chestnut. David Irvine (who sent me these pictures) wrote about this car: "This car came from England to Northern Ireland via a garage called Phillips in Belfast - not an RR dealer. The original plate WPO 322T is from east Sussex/Greater London (the PO lettering identifies that) but it did not need to be re registered with Northern Irish plates (County Antrim - to be precise - the letters IA are for that region) as Northern Ireland is part of the UK. But the 'PIA' plate gives the impression that it's a new (1980) car. The owner is a Belfast bar owner called Jackie Rogers (or possibly Rodgers) and I met him at the Belfast RR distributor, showed him some of my photos, and he gave me a lift home. He and his manager can be seen in the pictures talking to my parents." (following pictures).
