Between 1956 and 1959 some 31 left-hand drive drop head coupes were built by Park Ward on the Bentley Continental S1 chassis. This car's aluminum body sits on a 123-inch chassis powered by a 298 cubic-inch six-cylinder engine with a quoted 178 horsepower that might push the heavy, smooth riding car to 120 miles per hour.
Park War was based in Willesden, North London brought together in 1919 by a Mr. William Park and Mr. Charles Ward, both of whom had previously worked at Sizaire-Berwick. They quickly became associated with Rolls-Royce and Bentley. In 1933, Rolls-Royce bought into the company; six years later they owned all the stock. In 1961, Park Ward merged with H.J. Mulliner.
