1952 Bentley MK 6. This car drives but it needs some work. I'll tell you want it needs right here so there are no surprises. The clutch bites just off the floor and sounds like the throw-out bearing needs to be replaced. It is driveable. The interior needs to be replaced, not just because it is vinyl, but because it is old and untidy and seams are splitting. The interior wood (dash, doors, window surrounds etc) is also dull and in poor condition. British Auto Woods quoted $4500 to make all the wood like new. The body is in very good condition and there is very little significant rust, the car is very solid, but there are a few places where the paint is bubbling and a few minor cracks in the paint too. You could drive it home if you lived within a few hundred miles. Further than that I'd trailer it. These are beautiful cars. This one can be again but it needs this work. The photographs are as it is now. It is in Northern California at Placerville in an aircraft hangar. Call for information on 530 306 4648.
