Sale of Freddie Mercury's 1974 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow will help raise funds for Ukraine charity

The car transported rock band Queen’s charismatic front man from 1979 until his passing

The sale of this car will have all proceeds sent to the Superhumans of Ukraine charity

Despite never having a full driving license, Mercury was chauffeured in luxury in this car for much of his incredible career

Mercury and the car shared a lot of amazing history, including a well-documented record label contract signing, which took place within the car!

After his death, the car passed into his sister’s ownership and was retained by her for many years
