1926\u21921928 Bentley 6\u00bd Litre<\/h1>\n

Often confused with the Speed 6, the 6\u00bd Litre was Bentley’s first large-displacement, six-cylinder car. The new engine was necessary to bolster the image of Bentley beyond rivals of Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz. Furthermore, the six-cylinder unit ran much smoother than the 6\u00bd.<\/span><\/p>\n

The new engine was very advanced, using aluminum pistons and a unique valvetrain that employed the use of three crankshafts. While complex, this system was much quieter than the outgoing 6\u00bd Litre.
\nAlthough intended for luxury, the advanced engine was raced with great success in the Speed 6.<\/p>\n

To keep pace with the larger engine, the chassis was upgraded. Larger disc brakes were fitted with finned aluminum drums.<\/p>\n

The first 6\u00bd appeared as a bare chassis at the 1925 Olympia Motor Show, but it would take over a year to launch the car. During this period the engine was thorougly tested and bored out to 6,597cc before market launch.<\/p>\n

1929 Bentley 6\u00bd\/8-Litre Tourer FA2510<\/a> – sold for \u20ac615,250<\/p>\n

This 6\u00bd-Litre Le Mans-style tourer offered here was constructed from parts by well known Bentley collector\/racer and VSCC competitor, David Llewellyn, and has been upgraded with the engine block of an 8-Litre model. Off test on 19th January 1929, chassis number ‘FA2510′ is one of only 97 Bentley 6\u00bd-Litre models completed on the 12′ wheelbase chassis, the majority being erected on the 12’ 6″ frame. The car started life fitted with Weymann-type saloon coachwork by H J Mulliner and was first owned by Mr R H R Palmer, of Messrs Huntley & Palmer, the Reading-based biscuit manufacturers. It was first registered in the UK on 30th June 1929 as ‘RX 3612’, a Berkshire mark. The car is described in ‘Bentley, The Vintage Years’ by Michael Hay (page 465).<\/p>\n

\n

David Llewellyn built the car as a copy of a Le Mans Speed Six, with replica Vanden Plas-type coachwork and to high-performance specification, its 8-Litre engine delivering tremendous torque. The 8-Litre block is mounted in reverse on the 6\u00bd-Litre crankcase so that the engine retains the appearance of a ‘6\u00bd’ while the gearbox is an original Bentley D-type and the axles, steering box, etc are likewise genuine Bentley. After completion the car was bought from David Llewellyn by David Ayre, the Berkshire-based Bentley and Invicta specialist, who further improved it by fitting a servo to the braking system. At some stage the Bentley was loaned to a client to participate in a rally in South Africa. When the car returned it was discovered that the top had come off one of the pistons, so rather than risk further damage David dismantled the entire car and was in the process of reassembling it when a Dutch client, Dirk Lindenberg, persuaded him to part with it. The restoration was completed in time for the 2007 Paris-Peking Rally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

1926 Bentley 6\u00bd Litre Motor Bodies Coupe WT2271<\/a> – did not sell for $600,000<\/p>\n

Supreme Champion Award Winner. A Remarkably Original 6 1\/2-Litre Bentley, Fully Upgraded to Speed Six Specifications by the Factory and Still Wearing Its Original Coachwork. Part of the Highly Regarded Reg Parker Collection for Almost 20 Years. Beautiful Presentation of a Most Significant Bentley Motorcar.<\/p>\n

\n

Remarkably, this car retains its original Coupe body by Motor Bodies of Newcastle and is one of only a handful of 6 1\/2-litre models still retaining their original bodywork, as most have been converted into Le Mans-style Tourers over the years. As such, it is quite a pleasure to encounter such an original, well- maintained 6 1\/2 litre. This example is one of a select few 6 1\/2-litre models still wearing their original bodywork and this is the only example to feature Motor Bodies coachwork. The coach- work is truly splendid, sporting twin side-mount spares, a number of bespoke details and a unique sliding roof. With its large sunroof and disappearing windows, the handsome Coupe is an ideal configuration for touring. The car is an absolute joy in any weather condition, offering a comfortable and secure cockpit in adverse conditions while the roof can easily slide back, allowing sunlight to pour into the front seats on more idyllic days. It is finished in a handsome and most fitting black livery, the ideal presentation for a vintage Bentley.<\/p>\n

We are like kids in a candy store, except the candy is made of metal, goes vroom-vroom, and occasionally bankrupts us faster than a sugar rush at a candy store sale! We spend hours debating the merits of turbochargers versus superchargers, and our weekends are a never-ending quest for the perfect polish and wax combo. We can identify every make and model by the sound of a revving engine, and our idea of a romantic evening is a candlelit dinner with our cars in the garage.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.supercars.net","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Supercars.net\/","https:\/\/instagram.com\/super.cars.fans","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/supercars_net"],"url":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/author\/supercars\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/168642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=168642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/168642\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/168643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=168642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=168642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=168642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
