Following on from this, last May...

www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=178928

Progress has been fairly leisurely, I eventually got around to taking the car to Phantom Motor Cars during August to be fixed up following my 'off'. The dents have come out very well considering we havent used any new panels, in fact the swage line on the rear quarter flank is now straighter than the original on the o's. Whole car to be resprayed by the end of the month, should be back on the road in February.

Thankfully you've got it sorted. And it'll still have it's original panels - well done!

I can say that even with the near side being covered in primer and having no rear lamps, the older Bentley's have far more charm and charisma than any of the new ones.

Then he'd have to change his name to Olde English White, or something equally naff.

Needs to stick to green. White is for Mk2 Escorts and Lotus Esprits.
