1948 Bentley MK VI Special

FOR SALE: 1948 Bentley MK VI Special with coachwork by Halse Enterprises of Sussex, ngland. This vehicle was shipped over to Florida in 1983 from the UK and on the road until the late 1990's. Since then it has been garaged.

The engine runs well and starts easily. The car is responsive with good acceleration. The clutch is good and car shifts smoothly through all the gears. The lights, auges and electrics work with the exception of the front fog lights. Odometer reads 4,408 miles but due to the age of this vehicle the mileage cannot be verified. There is some paperwork that indicates this may well be the actual mileage.

The tires are old, erished and have flat spots from standing for so long and need to be replaced. The exhaust leaks from the flexible connections between the manifold and the silencer; and also between the two silencers. The chassis is solid with surface rust. The rubber bushings between anti-roll bar and shock absorbers are perished. The brakes work but should be cleaned and inspected.

Chassis number: B172CF

Enginenumber: BC116

This Bentley has a clean title and some documentation - both UK and US. On-site inspections are welcomed. Video of the vehicle running can be forwarded.

Intriguing piece of history - A great winter project!
