Please note that this lot will need to be collected from Fleet, U.K. It is believed that Gurney Nutting built just four Sedanca Coupé bodies on the 4¼-litre chassis including chassis number B187LE.

Interestingly, all four of these are also believed to have been delivered to Bentley’s iconic London-based distributor, Jack Barclay Ltd. Completed in late 1938, chassis number B187LE was originally finished in dark blue over a grey leather interior.

Interestingly, the chassis card for the car states that the car was originally intended to be delivered to Cuba, but for unknown reasons the car remained in the U.K. That December, it was delivered to its first owner Stuart H Scribbans of the well-known Scribbans’ family, which owned Scribbans Bakeries, a large bakery business in Birmingham.

Scribbans kept his Bentley for nearly thirty years and sold it in 1965 to F.V.

Chalmers of Staffordshire.

Later making its way to continental Europe, the car was later acquired by the U.K. based Bentley...
