1927 Bentley 6 ½-Litre Navigation
Ordered new by Captain John Wanamaker Jr., of the Wanamaker department store family, this Standard 'Bix Six' 6.5 Litre is believed to be one of the earliest Bentleys to be imported to the United States. It was delivered in July 1927, fitted with a unique 4-seat Sports Tourer body by Vanden Plas built on the mid-size, 12-foot chassis. The close-coupled, Rexine-covered coachwork features an extended scuttle that, with its long sweeping wings and raked windscreen, gives the car an unusually long appearance. The car's original brown leather interior is complemented by a solid German nickel dashboard and silver-plated interior hardware. This is one of the finest Vintage Bentleys to survive today, still retaining much of its original interior and original fabric body.
