Description
1953 Bentley R Type Automatic finished in Royal Garnet with beige hide interior. An excellent history file with many invoices, the previous keeper having spent some £66,000 on the car with Bentley specialists, this work included a full engine rebuild, mechanical overhaul and total renovation. Today the car stands in beautiful condition throughout with recent additions including period look seatbelts front and rear and brand new lamb’s wool over rugs. The history file contains an original 1953 copy of 'The Autocar' magazine with the original road test report on the new Bentley R Type. Thyme interior is trimmed in beige hide and retains the original radio which has been converted to AM FM. This is a truly fabulous example. Ready to show.
