The last ever car owned by Elvis Presley is heading for sale.
The King of Rock ‘N’ Roll’s eye-catching 1977 Cadillac Seville was the singer’s final ever ride.
And he even drove it the night before he died.
Up until his heartbreaking death on 16 August 1977, it is believed that Elvis purchased at least 200 Cadillacs during his time in the spotlight.
Just nine days after his death, his father Vernon transferred ownership of this motor to Elvis’s fiance at the time – Ginger Alden.
Over the years, the car has passed through many owners, including Jimmy Velvet, who ran the Elvis Presley Museum on the Graceland Estate in Memphis, Tennessee, in the US.
The current vendors purchased the vehicle at auction in 2014 from Graceland.
Elvis chose the car’s colour scheme – a maroon and burgundy combination over silver.
The iconic performer also had a custom CB radio fitted to the car, which he used to contact the guard house and the kitchen at Graceland.
The motor is kitted out with a powerful 5.7-litre V8 engine and has just 57,998 miles on the clock.
The bodywork is custom made by Fisher, as reported by Luxury Auto News.
The vehicle is now up for online auction with the closing date for bids set for 25 November.
Bonhams, who is listing the car, stated: “On the afternoon of August 16th 1977, the legend that was Elvis Aaron Presley permanently left the building.
“It’s thought that Elvis bought at least 200 Cadillacs over the years, with nearly all of them gifted to friends, relations or sometimes just strangers who’d been particularly helpful, friendly or kind.
“But the day before he died he wasn’t driving just another of the many Cadillacs he’d owned.
“He was driving this particular car.
“It was the last car he purchased for his own personal use.
“When he died in 1977 Elvis was just 42-years-old and had been behind the wheel of this very Cadillac Seville only a few hours beforehand.
“All of us here at Bonhams Cars Online who were lucky enough to sit in the driver’s seat, gently hold the steering wheel and look in the rear-view mirror felt some sort of visceral connection with his presence, his life story, and his indelible mark on popular culture and human history.
“How do you put a price on that?”
