Hi!
I am currently tinking about buying a Silver Shadow from the late eighties. Looking around at different adds (I live in Sweden) I found a 1978 SS II for sale that is imported from US. The odd thing about it is that the add claims that it "has the biggest engine option" and in a picture or the rear end one can see the text "Majestic 8,2 l" painted under the Silver Shadow II mark. i have searched internet but I have not found any information about other engine option then the 6,75 liter V8 for a 1978 model...
Could it be that the engine has been swapped for a US V8... :shock:
...or have there been aftermarked modifications available that increases the displacement of the original engine???
.. or is the text refering to something else then the engine size???
Link to the add (in Swedish)
