1957 Bentley S1 Continental Fastback  This extremely exclusive 1957 Bentley S1 Continental Fastback is one just 431 produced and one of the finest high-speed grand tourers ever built. In perhaps the models most striking coachwork, the lightweight fastback by H.J. Mulliner, the S1 is also one of the most beautiful of all postwar Bentleys. Following the success of the high-performance R-Type Continental, Bentleys S1 model garnered widespread praise as a highly capable road car of supreme luxury. This handsome example was newly sold by Brooklands Ltd. of London on May 3, 1957, to Donald Deeprose Esq. of Surrey, UK, finished in the stunning color combination of Circassian Blue with light blue upholstery. The Bentley was fitted from new with a HMV Smiths Radiomobile 200X radio, scuttle aerial, Dunlop Road Speed tires, wing lamps, and delivered with a tin of polish.After being owned by UK-based enthusiasts, the Continental made its way to the US by 1985, by which time it had been purchased by Peter Sealey of New Canaan, Connecticut. Mr. Sealey soon moved to Los Altos Hills, California, and British car specialists DeLongs Automotive of Campbell, California, performed an overhaul of the engine and transmission in 1997. A host of service records on file document additional maintenance and repairs carried out over the years. A summary on file notes that Mr. Sealey spent over $43,000 servicing the Bentley in his care and sold it in 2006, after 21 years of ownership. In 2010, noted privateer racer Herb Wetanson of Southampton, New York, purchased the Bentley for his private collection. After 13 years of ownership, Mr. Wetanson sold the Bentley to the previous owner. The S1 appears to have never been fully restored, and presents in largely original condition with its fantastic blue leather displaying a wonderful patina. The car is accompanied by copies of factory documentation, an original brochure, and 25 pages of service records, as well as its former UK registration book, tool kit, jack, and spare.H.J. Mulliners coach built Bentleys of the 1950s are some of the most exclusive and elegant motorcars of the era, and the S1 Continental Fastback was built in extremely limited numbers, with a roster of early owners that included some of the worlds most famous names. This distinctive example is well documented, fitted with its matching-numbers engine per accompanying factory records, finished in outstanding original colors, and features a wonderfully patinated interior. With this desirable host of attributes and its gorgeous coachwork, this S1 Continental is not to be overlooked. Donald Deeprose Esq., Surrey, UK (acquired new via Brooklands Ltd. in 1957)J.A.P.

 1957/58 BENTLEY S-1 CONTINENTAL Park Ward Design 872 Sports Coupe  Paris Show Car the First of Eleven Left Drives built.  73,183 km (45,739 miles) believed correct. This delightful performer was equipped from new with the final specification large valve, large carburetor engine, power steering, dual master cylinder braking system, heavier rear axle shafts and more.  Authentic air conditioning for the period has been fitted. Its efficiency and that of the cooling system have been upgraded using technology unavailable a half century ago. The factory record tells us that this was the 1957 Paris Salon Car.  It was originally delivered on September 24, 1957 to Leon Paulet, Esq. at 5 Square Stalingrad, Marseille, France.  Mr. Paulet was an engineer whose firm was founded in 1913 to supply arms and precision machine tools and in 1919 graduated to manufacturing components for automobiles. In 1921 they revealed a chassis of their own. The Leon Paulet Type 6AB was a large, formal automobile based upon a Hispano-Suiza design. Very few were made before cessation of the project in 1927. Still titled in France to an original family member the vehicle was acquired by us from a noted Belgian trader in December 2007 in virtually original condition throughout aside from a poor respray to the side panels. The absence of wear to certain indicators and the advanced age of the original owner would tend to confirm that the 67,000+ kilometer (42,000 mile) odometer reading at the time was accurate. A complete cosmetic and mechanical restoration including but not limited to a bare metal refinish, complete rebuild of the engine, the gearbox and the braking systems and a fresh show quality interior and re-veneering of the wood pieces was completed July 2009.   Upon disassembly it was found to have several unique features including factory power windows, map pockets to the backs of the front seats and zippered document pouch to the headliner, all faithfully included in this, its first and only restoration. Elegantly finished in Alpine Grey over Black Garnet with parchment hides, we believe this 2018 Amelia Island Peoples Choice Trophy Winner is by far the finest and perhaps the only left drive example available anywhere in the world.
