| Description |
Finished Mason's Black with Tan hides, this very well documented example was the subject of a complete body-off restoration in the late 1980s. Quite a few RROC trophies remain in the trunk to attest to the result.
In 1997 it was fitted with correctly ducted air conditioning as the 1953 New York Show Car.
A left drive, center shift 4 speed example with rear fender spats, factory lightweight alloy seats and documented 4.9 litre engine upgrade by the works, this example of the most sought after of all postwar Bentleys incorporates a host of very desirable features. The correct radio is in fine working order.
The fastest and most expensive production car in the world when new, its ride quality, handling and performance 57 years later are properly described as remarkable.
Complete small and large tools, correct original handbook and copies of the factory records accompany the automobile. |
