Something else came home the other day. Always wanted one. I just wish this house has the five car garage our other house has! 1977 Silver Wraith II. One of 2,135 made.



Full Garage--Carrera S Cabriolet, Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith II, 356 C

Jeez, I love those old Rollers - watching one on BaT right now. That is the sweet spot for Rolls Royce style!

I can help you with the space issue, I’ll take that 356C off your hands for cheap. Wow, what a line up you have right there.

I am still looking for a new house ... I say house but what I mean is a ten car garage with some living area attached ... lack of space is what has stopped me from adding to my collection.

Yours is really nice, but I'm a little CDO (that is like OCD but in the correct order) I would clean up the garage clutter ...

Great stable.

Funny, just last night, I was watching an episode of CHiPs (just found it on Amazon Prime and got sucked in due to nostalgia). It was episode 11, season 1 from 1977. The episode is about a gang of car thieves that steals Rollers. There are several of your vintage in the episode. You should check it out.

I’m faced with a dilemma. I’m a Porsche nut and wifey is a Range Rover nut. Our stable consists of a 2009 Porsche 997.2 6sp MT C2S, a 2013 Cayenne 958 Turbo, a 1998 Range Rover HSE and a 2014 Range Rover Sport. He is the problem I live with everyday... Only have a two car garage. I had to concede one of the spots to wifey’s 2014 RR Sport. For the winter, I have the 911 in storage and the Cayenne in the garage with the RR. Now spring has sprung and I’m pulling the 911 out because I can’t wait to drive it. Alas, the Cayenne will be pushed to the driveway with the 1998 RR. Should I cover the Cayenne when not in use? I plan on driving both Porsche’s this Spring and summer.

Edgy, that second picture above needs to be framed. It looks like that's where that rolls was born.

Yeah, we like that one, too. In truth, it's not really our place. Just where my parents are. (SB cemetery)
