1953 Bentley R-Type Saloon 4-Speed Project

This classic motorsport icon is a 1953 Bentley R-Type Saloon from the United States, specifically hailing from Laguna Woods, California. The vehicle boasts a distinctive two-tone blue exterior finish and timeless charm with its blue leather interior, making it a true head turner on any vintage scene. This right-hand-drive vehicle features a non-running yet powerful 4.6L inline-six engine coupled with a smooth four-speed manual transmission for spirited drives once restored. However, it's important to note that this unique classic is currently available as a project car, which means there might be considerable work ahead to bring the engine up to its former glory and perhaps address any potential issues amassed during its approximate twenty-year storage period under previous ownership. Nevertheless, this 1953 Bentley R-Type Saloon offers buyers an unparalleled opportunity to acquire, restore, and ultimately own a significant piece of British motoring history - as long as they're willing to put in the necessary time and effort.
