Description
Spectacular Bentley MK VI from 1952 in perfect condition, great color combination.
The car was originally sold to Dr Frank Stabler of Newcastle (famous doctor).
The MK VI 1952 (4560 engine, manual gearbox, double carburettor and double exhaust pipe) will be bodied by James Young in the (McNeil) C10BM design in a version called "Coupe' Saloon". 30 MK VIs of the C10BM design will be built. The car was born with some peculiarities: Bentley bumper instead of the James Young (with license plate holder inserted in the trunk), bonnet opening from the passenger compartment, petrol flap opening from the passenger compartment, ashtray on the James Young doors, sun visors with removable plexiglass flap, roof closed (the sunroof was standard), high and modified dashboard.
Completely restored in 2017 of bodywork (returned to its original color as per initial order), leather, burl wood and chrome. The engine was also restored a few months before the purchase in England.
The car appeared (in cream color) in the film "Paura 3 D" by the Manetti Bros.
The car has the original use and maintenance booklet for both Bentley and James Young; it also has ASI gold plate approval (certificate of identity).
The car can be viewed by making an appointment at our showroom.
