 We
are greatly appreciative of all your information
and photos that we proudly display on the web
site. But you are selling yourself short. There
is a tremendous amount of knowledge and skill
among our readers, and we would like to ask you
to share yours with others.
You are particularly good at something having
to do with old car restoration, repair and maintenance.
It might be body work, sheet metal, welding, upholstery,
electrical work, painting, brakes, engines, alignment,
cooling or any of the hundreds of other things
necessary to get and keep a car on the road. The
point is, whatever you are particularly good at
is a skill that others would like to learn. And
who better to teach them than someone who does
it himself?
If working on a car scares you, and you prefer
the expertise of someone more knowledgeable and
skilful with tools, you probably have historical
knowledge of your car or Vintage Bentleys that
others would love to read about. Your knowledge
is valuable and interesting and needs to be preserved.
The biggest reservation usually is, "I can't
write". Maybe not, but you can speak, can't
you? That is all that writing is and don't worry
about spelling or sentence construction or grammar.
We will proofread your work and make you look
brilliant. It is what is inside your head or what
you can do with your hands that counts. We want
to share that with our readers.
I would like to thank the
following vintage Bentley enthusiasts for their
contributions in April 2013:
Anton van Luijk, Bernd Lehmann, Bert Degenaar,
Don Struke, Duncan Kensington Moir, Gregory Porter,
John Anderson, John Skidmore, Leon Mitchell, Michael
Harrison, Peter Singhof, Peter Worrall, Phillip
Schudmak, Richard Freestone, Rob Hubbard, Roy
Ginn, Russell Browne, Terry McGrath, Tom King,
Tony Johns, Tony Sinclair, Vince Royle (A
few of the contributions are queued up and will
be published in the next few days.) |

| Chassis
no. 276 is looking for a new home |
|
|
Read a very detailed account of 3-litre
chassis no. 276, which has been in the keeping of the
same owner in Victoria, Australia, since the early 1950s.
Leon Mitchell, the owner's friend of 30+ years is helping
the family to find a new home for the Bentley. Leon
begins the account: "This stunningy original 3-litre
Bentley has been a treasured possession of the present
custodian -- a respected professional restorer of fine
vintage cars and motorcycles - for approximately sixty
years..." |
