"There must be a mix up with the information from the Teryl Flying Lady Ad in 1976. I had been trying to suss this out for a while and the only thing I can think of was an error in number. We have service records for this car dating back to the 1950s and show the car was in the UK under the same family ownership until at least 2006. Also, the ad states it was a Jarvis body and this car retains its original VdP body along with period photos to show it hadn't been changed at any point in time. Never had a V windshield etc. Just wanted to throw this into the mix for future research for others. Stampings match VdP book info, factory records and All the Prewar Bentleys as new information."
