Description
1963 Bentley S3 Continental Flying Spur Titre de circulation suédois Châssis n° BC44LXA Moteur n° 22ABC - Véhicule exceptionnel et historique limpide - Peinture récente chez English Automotive - Intérieur d'origine somptueux - Seulement 18 exemplaires conduite à gauche produits Troisième Flying Spur conduite à gauche produite, cette voiture a été commandée neuve par Stephanie Busch, qui habitait Pasadena (Los Angeles) où Adolphus Busch, magnat de la bière, s'était installé à la fin du XIXe siècle.
De teinte "Burgundy" avec filets or et intérieur en cuir rouge, elle avait été commandée avec quelques particularités comme une antenne électrique, des pneus à flancs blancs, un avertisseur spécial, des moquettes en laine, des vitres électriques et teintées.
Bien que fabriquée en 1962, elle a été livrée en 1963, ce qui explique la date de sa première immatriculation.
Après le décès de Max Busch, la voiture a été vendue à L.
Bennett qui l'a gardée cinq ans avant de la céder à J.
Klein.
