Every now and then, we at ECT are tasked to handle the sale of a car that’s been owned by a star. That’s a right royal honor to us, and today’s car is one that comes with documented proof that the first owner of this 1976 Rolls-Royce Corniche Coupe was none other than Cassius Clay Jr, popularly known as Muhammad Ali. When the world’s greatest boxer wasn’t floating like a butterfly and stinging like a bee, it seems he liked to roll around in a car from one of the world’s greatest luxury automakers. This 1976 Corniche is from the Corniche II generation, and it wears 73,776 miles on its stately wheels. The seller says that it’s currently used for special occasions and charity events, and he has photos and documentation to validate its special history, as it’s considered a Muhammad Ali collectible. The car is said to have undergone an older restoration, and has received some recent maintenance.
The design of a Rolls-Royce is unmistakable, and this 1976 Rolls-Royce Corniche Coupe showcases what Rolls-Royce was thinking in the 1970s. Iconic quad headlamps, ample chrome and smoothly sculpted lines are all presented in a timeless Coffee Brown paint job. A personalized plaque from the factory for Muhammad Ali reading “I Am The Greatest” is also reportedly present. Venture aboard the crème interior with brown detailing and it’s a Seventies time capsule, and one that you can really imagine Muhammad Ali coveting after a grueling round in the ring. Being a Rolls-Royce, you get plenty of creature comforts, including climate control and the original Clarion push button radio with tape deck, and equalizer tucked between the front seats. The Corniche is a full four seater, as proper adults can be accommodated in the rear seats, although at 6 feet 3 inches, Muhammad Ali would have preferred the front.
Bearing the iconic 6.75L Rolls-Royce-Bentley L410 OHV V8 under the hood grants this 1976 Rolls-Royce Corniche Fixed Roof with ample grunt to match its looks, albeit for a stately cruise rather than a track bruise. The engine is tuned to deliver ample torque rather than high-end power, and sends drive to the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic with column shifter.

Rolls-Royce is well known to be the most luxurious automaker in the world. With a rich history spanning over a decade, the Silver Spirit is one of their best-known icons of the Eighties and Nineties. This was the first Rolls-Royce to feature a retractable Spirit of Ecstasy hood mascot. The spring-loaded mascot would swiftly disappear into the grille if tampered with. Hence, Rolls-Royce owners could now rest easy in the knowledge that souvenir hunters and jealous punters couldn’t get their hands on one of the car’s most desirable aspects. That’s just one of many reasons of why you should consider taking on ownership of this 1982 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit. The car comes with a reportedly original mileage of just 62,100, and has received some new parts to keep it humming along smoothly.
