1957 BENTLEY S1 SALOON LHD

1957 Bentley Standard steel saloon in LHD I have owned this car for 18 years and am the 3rd owner
Partially disassembled for restoration. Car is currently in primer and needs minor finishing bodywork and paint and reassembly. Every part is present and accounted for. The car was professionally disassembled with every little part. screw etc clearly marked and in their own bag. Furthermore all parts are stored through several plastic bins clearly marked for the sections of the car that they go to. All rust has been professionally repaired with new rocker panels. fender sections and body mounts all professionally fabricated and installed to original spec. The doors close perfectly and the gaps all around are perfect (see pic) This car comes with a brand new red Connolly (original manufacturer which is no longer in business) leather interior sewn to OE spec. There is an extra red hide included and a box of red leather scraps for windlacing and carpet bindings. I also have a brand new roll of the Wilton wool carpet(also OE manufacturer. The car has a new Borla stainless steel exhaust installed(factory style). a fully rebuilt transmission with no miles on it. a rebuilt and balanced driveshaft. a rebuilt rear diff. The wood veneer is in perfect condition and all the old varnish has been stripped and is ready for a new coat. All tools. owners handbook. hubcaps. jack. air pump etc are all present. Car also comes with a spare motor. trans. fuel tank. rear end and a brand new in the box complete air conditioning kit. I also have a perfect original and uncracked original steering wheel and a brand new set of the original stainless steel rocker moldings from Bentley(last ones in the country 10 yrs ago) Car has been stored inside and hasn't been started in 5 years. It ran well when it was on the road years ago and would need the fuel system flushed. a new battery and the brakes adjusted(possibly rebuilt) to run and drive again. This is not the typical rust bucket or bondo'd RHD Bentley. it is a LHD car that has had professional restorers work on it every step of the way. I have lost interest in the car and it is time to sell. Please direct all serious inquires to 917-681-8135

I will not part the car. The interior alone(which is un-obtainable) cost more than what I am asking for the entire package. I may consider a running/driving MG T series trade-no other make or model would be considered. Pictures only show a portion of what you will be getting.
