1936 Bentley 3.5 Liter at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance

This car was exhibited at the 1936 New York Motor Show on the Brewster stand and was the last 3½ liter chassis.

In January, 1937, the first private owner was Francis (Frank) DuPont, who designed the Interstate Highway system for President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

This Derham customized body was changed from a Tourer to a Drop Head. It is the only Bentley bodied by Derham. It is the only Bentely with two body builders from New York: Vanden Plas - England - Tourer Body and J. J. Derham - USA - 2-door Drophead Body. It is powered by a 3,669 cc in-line, six-cylinder engine.
