1929 Bentley 4½ Litre
Le Mans
Fully rebuilt to 100% perfect condition in 2006
or as they say in the ads fresh.
Got to be honest here, didn’t want to put the price on as
it’s not cheap but does have a very, very high spec.
New racing crank, rods, pistons, valves, etc, etc.
Full racing undertray, racing seats, zeiss headlights plus all
the normal goodies for a Le Mans.
Yes, it’s even got matching engine and chassis and gearbox
and axles and steering. Well, in fact, the only thing it doesn’t
have is her original coachwork but then there’s not a great
call for black saloons (body removed in the 50s).
A joy to drive, a nightmare to convince the wife she’s worth
it but with many years trouble free motoring ahead. |
