"This is the lightweight Bentley owned and raced by Hamish Morten in the early 70s. He rebuilt the car on chassis 618 in 1973. The engine number is RN3050. This car won the cinquantenaire race at Le Mans in1973 and also the Vintage Seaman trophy in 1973 it also still holds a record at Prescott for class6set in 1973 that I beleive still stands today. The car was subsequently owned by Keith Schellenberg who raced it up until 1988. I bought the car from him in 2004."
