Steve and Dot Wynne’s 1925 3 litre Bentley, chassis 513.

"The word “skimpy” was often used in the 1920s and 30s to describe the more sporting bodies, and this coachwork, on what seems to be a short chassis 9 foot wheelbase, certainly is. The car wears the tapered “100 MPH” radiator, too."

"I remembered after seeing a write up on this car in the REVIEW, that we had seen it in New Zealand. It was a participant in an annual vintage car tour we Silver Ghosters joined up with. Took the pics while we were all waiting to cross a river on a ferry, in November of 2010."
