The following information was received from Harry Morten about HT1629:

"Chassis no: HT1629, Engine no: 182, Registration no: SP 7376

I've just spoken to Caistor Motor Museum in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk UK, who have confirmed that they have a 1923 3 Litre, with Reg No SP 7376 and Chassis No HT1629 and Engine No 182, now with a green/yellow body.

SP 7376 and Engine No 182 were originally together from the factory and my father (Hamish Morten) bought the car in 1966 which then had chassis No 184 on it. He removed the chassis and looks like chassis No HT1629 was put on instead (at some time)."

WO Bentley 3 L, 1927th Boattail Roadster in style of Jarvis of Wimbledon. Completely restored by Dick Moss without considering the costs to the absolute highest standard. The car was finished in 1997 and was one of the last major renovations Dick Moss conducted. The same year that the car was completed renovated in 1997 it became prized at this year's BDC annual meeting in GB and then rarely used, why it still maintains the highest standard."
