1984 Other Makes G80 CONVERTIBLE Description:

1984 Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible (Drophead) coupe with only 75884 original miles (will have a few extra miles before sold as the car will be driven to the gas station). White' exterior paint (painted 5 years ago and since sat in the garage) with camel interior, original Connolly leather seats and with a full set of matching original Lamb's wool rugs, a matching soft top with leather tonneau cover. The car was originally purchased new from 'Beverly Hills Motor Cars' of California on 09/22/1984. It was, for many years, serviced by Beverly Hills Cars and later by Charles Agapou of Beverly Hills. In 2006 car was sold to a businessman in Maryland who kept the car for two years and then car was bought by a California buyer who is now selling the car because he has bought a 1996 Corniche S. The car was painted almost 5 years ago and since then it sat in the garage as the owner went to work as a contractor in Iraq for over 6 years. Car was rarely driven by the California owner due to his absence from USA. Before painting the car, entire chrome and other body parts were removed and kept with the car in its trunk where they are still kept with each and every piece intact. Car has been sitting in the garage since its painting was completed. It would require color sanding as all newly painted cars are required. Body shop that painted the car “London Bridge” went through some legal issues and could not install all the body parts. A local body shop quoted $1500 to put back all the parts properly but the owner decided not to mess with it. This car has a rebuilt transmission with less than 78 miles on it since its parked in the garage. The car has no history of any accidents as far as the owner knows. This car can be driven from Los Angeles to New York without any hesitations in the condition it sits today. After the owner bought this car he was going to restore it totally but his assignment to Iraq/Kuwait did not make it happen. After coming back from Iraq, the owner bought another Corniche, a 1996 Model S. This is the reason for the owner to sell this Corniche.

Owner would consider getting the entire car’s body pieces installed and make sure everything is put back with perfection. But then the owner requires a sale price no less than $40,000. This is a NO RESERVE auction and the highest bidder can perhaps buy this car at half the price than the going market price. Mechanically this car does not need anything at all. Cosmetically, no bodywork is required. Paint is around 5 years old but since painting it sat in the garage. So as far as the paint is concerned, it is still new but would need color sanding. Car would need a good detail washing and waxing and it would be like new. There’s not a single screw missing from the parts that are taken out before painting. Owner has paid $4,713 to the MV on 04/24/2009 but did not complete the registration due to his contract work in Iraq/Kuwait.Tires were installed brand new which has less than 200 miles five years ago. Former mechanic from a local Rolls Royce Dealer with his own independent shop maintained this car and can be contacted to obtain any details about its service matters.

Owner has bought a brand new convertible top that will go with the car but would require installation. Local upholstery shop has quoted $1000 for the top installation that includes a wood piece for the top.
