This 1983 Rolls-Royce Corniche convertible wears a repaint in Masons Black over black Connolly leather with red piping, and is powered by a 6.75-liter V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a power-operated black soft top, a matching top boot, 15″ steel wheels, later-style polished hubcaps, power-adjustable front seats, power windows, automatic climate control, and an Alpine head unit linked with replacement speakers. The car shows 35k miles and has reportedly been stored and not driven during the last decade. Recommissioning work is advised by the selling dealer. This Corniche convertible is now offered in Illinois with a clean Carfax report and a clean New York title.
The car wears a repaint in Masons Black with red pinstripes, and it features a stainless-steel Doric-inspired grille with a Spirit of Ecstasy ornament. The black soft top was fitted with replacement wooden bows by the selling dealer, and the rear window is hazy. Paint imperfections are shown up close in the gallery below, including blistering at body creases as well as dings and scratches.
The 15″ steel wheels feature polished trim rings with later-style hubcaps, and they are mounted with Michelin Radial XH tires that were installed at least 10 years ago. Factory equipment includes a four-wheel independent suspension with coil springs, anti-roll bars, telescopic dampers, and a hydraulic self-leveling system. Stopping power is provided by disc brakes at all four corners.
The power-adjustable front bucket seats and rear bench are upholstered in black Connolly leather with red piping. Interior appointments include power windows, a digital clock, an Alpine head unit, aftermarket door speakers, and bi-level climate control. The burled wood trim has been refinished. The headliner shows signs of wear at the rear of the cabin.
The two-spoke steering wheel frames an 85-mph speedometer alongside a warning lamp panel and a combination gauge for amperage, coolant temperature, fuel level, and oil pressure. The six-digit odometer shows 35k miles.
The 6.75-liter V8 features an aluminum-silicon alloy block and aluminum cylinder heads along with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission. The selling dealer notes that the car has been stored and not driven for roughly a decade. Recommended recommissioning work includes fluids services, a tune-up, and inspecting the hydraulic system.
The Carfax report shows no accidents or damage.
