Summary
This 1953 Bentley R-Type Saloon, one of 2,323 examples, has a notable provenance, having been delivered to Jack Barclays LTD in London and later donated to the Rolls-Royce Foundation. Showing 51k miles, the car features a black repaint with gold pinstriping, though it presents with bubbling paint, some inoperative lights, an engine oil leak, and a transmission that "second guesses itself. " Recent maintenance includes refurbishment of the brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and shoes.
