I`ve worked on this vehicle - back in 1990 my Wife and I worked for an Estate Agent who had a passion for old Bentleys - he lived with his young wife at Rosecraddock, a large 19th century mansion in Caulfield, Melb, amongst the extensive collection of Rolls Royce and Bentley automobiles was the above, still fitted with the Army radio-phone used by sir Menzies, I only drove it on a few occasions as I was employed to look after all of his fleet of cars, numbering in the dozens, he had a number of shipping containers on the property, each containing a Rolls Royce or Bentley, with a few other marques stored in the old stables on the property. It was an interesting job to say the least, I`ll never forget those cars.
