Bentley R type 1954

General description : 1954 Bentley R-Type This desirable 1954 Bentley R-Type is an excellent example that would benefit from straightforward recommissioning. Silver over black with a nice and fresh new burgundy leather interior. This car has no rust and the undercarriage is very clean. The paint is decent but showing its age in a few places. The chrome has some pitting and there's a dent in the grille. The woodwork and carpets are in reasonable condition overall. The motor will run but the carb and fuel lines need cleaning. The gas tank is also leaking a bit. An honest car with a straight-body and a lot of potential. This Bentley could easily be brought back to driver quality condition with minimal effort. A wonderful opportunity to own an extremely collectible R-Type at a bargain price.Chassis no. B94XF Price: $23,500

About Bentley
Before becoming a mere subsidiary to Rolls-Royce, Bentley was an independent Automaker famous for the "fastest lorries in the world" e.i Bentley 4½ Litre.

Good ol' Bentley boys (A group of wealthy British motorists, mainly Woolf Barnato, Sir Henry "Tim" Birkin, steeplechaser George Duller, aviator Glen Kidston, S.C.H. "Sammy" Davis, and Dr Dudley Benjafield ) -in their trusty Bentley cars- took four consecutive victories at 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930

In 1931 Bentley was taken over British Central Equitable Trust that later proved to be a front for Rolls-Royce Limited. Unhappy with his role at Rolls-Royce, W.O. Bentley left the company when his contract expired in 1935 duly joining Lagonda. This was beginning of which ultimately led Bentley cars to become more or less badge-engineered Rolls-Royce.
