(No, not mine!)
My wife told me that there is a Bentley for sale near the parking lot
where she meets her carpool. Yesterday I took a look. It is definitly an
S-series Bentley. The sign on it says 1962, which would make it an S-III.
The sign claims it runs very well and has 97Kmiles. From what I could see
from the outside it appeared to be in good original condition. Some
paint checking, some scratches, some tears in the leather but by and large
pretty nice looking. 2-tone green. RR (i.e. GM-under-license) V8 and auto
trans. 6.23 litres, pushrod valves. 9.8:1 compression ratio. Standard RR
body (i.e. not custom, not Standard Steel make).
I did not take down the phone number, but will get it if anyone is
interested.
