2014 BARRETT JACKSON LAS VEGAS
The Barrett Jackson 7th Annual Auction is set for this weekend in Las Vegas. The largest collector car auction has grown every year and is now the premier show to attend. Thousands of beautiful cars will line the room at the Mandalay Bay Event Center. A special vehicle will go up for the highest bidder this year...the
1970 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow and the owner was...
Johnny Cash.....The Silver Shadow belonged to him in 1970 and was used to chauffeur him around. Mr. Cash had a very successful TV show then and the network ABC bought the car for him as a gift. The original price paid for the vehicle was $9500.
The 1970 Rolls Royce is a special order left hand driver car. The initials JRC are embedded in the doors in gold. Mr. Cash used the vehicle until the mid 1980's when he sold the car. This car has a 3 speed twin carburetor V8 engine and every luxury option available during the time.
The stunning car has only 32000 miles on it.
The Barrett Jackson staff have not put a estimated value on the car or a auction possibility.
This car fit that Mr. Black personality and will remain a classic collector piece forever!
