FINAL COMMENTS


COMMENTS

This vehicle is a fine example of a very rare and collectible Bentley automobile. It has had some interior and exterior restoration work performed at an unknown time. The paint is in excellent condition with some very minor road chips. The interior has been restored at some point with correct leather matc hing the original very well. All interior wood trim has been expertly restored and refinished. All electrical components appear to be functioning properly. Exterior chrome is in excellent original condition. Original wheel covers and recently replaced, original style wide whitewall tires are in excellent condition. There is some stains on the inner trunk carpeting, however; the carpets are original and in excellent shape otherwise. The vehicle appears to be mechanically sound, with no apparent defects. With some minor cosmetic restoration and detailing, this vehicle can only increase in value.
