Summary
This Bentley R-Type, chassis number B26WH, is one of only 28 bodied by renowned Kent coachbuilders James Young, featuring a remarkably modern design that foreshadowed the successor S1. Specially ordered with an R-Type Continental-style radiator shell and hood, it was the longest-term vehicle in Charles Gillet's collection. Acquired in the early 1980s, it underwent a meticulous restoration by White Post Restorations, earning an AACA Grand National First Prize in 1986.
