For those for whom nothing but the best will do. This magnificant all matching numbers H.J. Mulliner Weymann Saloon as had the external parts completley restored whilst preserving over a several year period of treatment the wonderful leather interior. You have to see the car to appreciate what has been done to it & the quality of the work done.
The body is the original sallon body as fitted in 1929/30 by H.J. Mulliner of Chiswick to the Weymann patent. A weymann Plaque between the doors attests to this.
A sample of the old rexine was taken off the body when the fabric was removed. At vast expense a new tool matching the original pattern was machined up & used to make a 50 meter run of rexine identical to the original material. This was then used to painstakingly recover the body leaving it presenting in as new condition.
In addition to the coackwork & interior the mechanics have been completly & utterly gone though & rebuilt as required to put the car into perfect order. Simply put this is one of the best W.O. Bentley's we have handled & is an absolutle credit to the current owners who undertook the work.
Original Bentley Saloons are a rare commodity & a refreshing change from the more prosaic & common pastiche lemans cars we see so regularly.
