Description

1956 Bentley S1 Park Ward Continental Convertible,

Originally supplied through Jack Barclay Ltd, as a coupe to the Hon.

H.R.

Cayzer of Bletchington Park on the 29th November 1956.

Other known owners were Lord Rotherwick of London (1958), C.C.

Hanson of Nottingham (1961) and then John Rock Esq of London (1971).

A well known Swiss collector purchased BC68BG in 2002 and restored the Bentley before selling in 2010.

BC68BG comes with a comprehensive history file and at some stage in its life power steering was fitted.

It was also decided by its most recent collector owner that BC68BG should be returned to its original Colour of Black and conversion to convertible spec be undertaken at great expense further enhancing the driving pleasure of this most magnificent Bentley.
