Feel a bit, well, grubby, to be posting in such hallowed areas of the site, please be gentle!

As per the thread title really, is anybody in possession of a decent quality image of the Bentley Speed Six (or indeed standard 6 1/2 litre) engine bay? Preferably a shot of the front three quarter of the car with bonnet open and a nice amount of detail of the engine to zoom into.

Would be greatly appreciated!

I'm at work at the moment, but have several bare chassis shots of just what you're looking for at home. Will host & post later.

Damn, I'm so sorry. Just checked my files and the ones I was thinking of are actually an 8 litre. Any good?

Unfortunately it needs to be a 6 1/2....

Thanks for looking though.

Excellent, many thanks Duesy, waiting isn't a problem.

Is that it in your profile pic? I don't recognise the coachwork...

Or am I being thick and your user name refers to a Duesenberg?

Here (I hope - I never seem to get the hang of posting pictures!) is another one, with an extra carb, so maybe it goes faster!

Do either of you Speed 6 people need an owner's manual? There is one coming up at the next H&H auction:

Beautiful car Duesey.... I could look at those engines all day. It must be fun to drive, although I would confess to being nervous if I ever had to take the wheel in one.
