HERE WE HAVE FOR SALE A VERY RARE BENTLEY. PLEASE CALL BOB FOR MORE
INFO AT 954-779-1000 Description The Bentley Mk. VI was Britain's
first postwar luxury car, and reaffirmed that despite the war,
Great Britain was still very much the same. The car was built with
consummate attention to detail, and to the highest standards using
traditionally British techniques. Included among these was the use
of a separate frame so that customers seeking individual coachwork
could buy chassis only and have them shipped to the coachbuilder of
their choice to be fitted with a custom body. Typically, these
coachbuilders were British as well, with such famous companies as
Abbott, H. J. Mulliner, Park Ward, James Young, Vanden Plas,
Freestone & Webb, and Hooper. A very small number of cars, usually
destined for foreign markets, were shipped abroad and fitted with
bodies by foreign coachbuilders. Abbott Ltd. created multiple
Drophead Coupe variations on the Mk VI-theme. As in true
coachbuilding tradition, no two were exactly alike. Specifications
