1986 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit hearse, finished in blue with a beige interior. This Silver Spirit is a European-spec car sold new in Germany and imported to the United States from Japan in 2016. It's equipped with a metric instrument cluster, and its odometer shows about 64,400 kilometers, which represents approximately 40,000 miles. This car makes Rolls-Royce's heavenly ride more than a marketing metaphor. While it started life as a sedan, it was converted into a hearse with a wagon-like roof line, correspondingly taller rear doors, and a sliding casket carrier by a previous owner. It lost one of its rear seats and gained a full set of interior curtains during the transformation.Factory equipment includes 15-inch alloy wheels with metal hubcaps, a hydropneumatic suspension system, wood interior trim, leather upholstery, and a cassette player.Numerous modifications were made to this Silver Spirit to turn it into a hearse. The seller also notes it was originally finished in black and repainted blue by a previous owner.Wider, lower, and more angular than its predecessor, the Silver Spirit helped Rolls-Royce's design language take a major step forward when it arrived in 1980. It continued to put a big focus on comfort and luxury and it carried on with the brand's venerable V8. Closely related to Rolls-Royce sister company Bentley's Mulsanne and Turbo models, it retired in 1999.Power for this Silver Spirit comes from a 6.75-liter V8, rated at 237 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. It spins the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic transmission.
