Description
1935 BENTLEY 3.5 LITRE BERLINE HOOPER Titre de circulation anglais Châssis n° B40CR Moteur n° U2BH - Belle patine - Modèle rare et intéressant - Historique et entretien suivis Après avoir été carrossée chez Hooper, cette berline a été livrée le 10 janvier 1935 à son premier propriétaire, Sir Macfarlane, propriétaire d'une fabrique de gâteaux en Irlande.
Cette jolie carrosserie quatre portes en aluminium, basse, sobre et légère, aurait équipé sept autres châssis Bentley 3.5 Litres.
Avec un thème bicolore rouge foncé et noir, cette voiture présente un intérieur en cuir beige et des moquettes marron, les sièges avant dissimulant toujours les deux boîtes à outils d'origine.
La voiture repose sur des roues fils sobrement peintes en noir, le tout dans une présentation d'origine d'une qualité étonnante.
D'un point de vue mécanique, elle est équipée de son moteur d'origine qui a été entièrement restauré dans les ateliers Fiennes en 1991, comme en attestent les fiches de travaux.
