My grandfathers 1935 Bentley 3½- Airline Sports Saloon

[Duesey]

I thought I would post a thread on this car before it gets sold.

It is one of my favourite looking cars that has to go.

Man, that is stupendous. An honest restoration project, but one that is well worth the doing. I have a feeling you will do well on that one, possibly the most attractive Derby Bentley I have seen. (I am not a drophead enthusiast.) Should attract quite a bit of interest.

wow super looking vehicle.

on the advert is "Email: Rob Hubbard" previosuly of VSCC fame?

For a ghastly moment I thought it said Ron Hubbard.

Duesey,

Would I be right in assuming it was you I chatted to in the car park outside the Mulberry factory shop last Sunday, with the ex-Tim Houlding 3L?

It's such a beautiful car, you must be sorry to see it go.

Yes, very much so, especially as it was one belonging to my grandfather.

There are just too many cars to restore so we just picked 1 project that we would like to get done- a speed six bentley, as we already have a 3/ 4 1/2 and absolutely love driving that.
