Summary
This 1953 Bentley R-Type is a rare fixed-head coupe by Park Ward, one of a limited number produced. It retains its 4.6-liter inline-six and four-speed manual transmission, and the seller reports it runs on an external fuel source. The restoration begun in the 1990s remains incomplete, with the aluminum body requiring paint and the interior needing finishing, including a missing headliner.
