Equipment
RHD. Automatic, Radiomobile multiband radio, wheel covers, whitewalls, fender mirrors, folding full length sunroof, individual front seats with console, fog lights. Originally owned by the High Sheriff of Devon (apparently a highly lucrative profession.) Shrunken, cracked, touched up old repaint. Sound original interior. Sound but old chrome. A sound old car, but neglected and sure to have a laundry list of work that needs to be done. Fred Kanter Collection.
Market commentary
The bidders were astute to be very reticent about paying up for this Bentley, even with its desirable Flying Spur coachwork and Continental chassis. The purchase price is only the beginning of a long and expensive process.
