"I have recently acquired a photo of Bentley Reg. No. UV 6791, originally the property of Sir Malcolm Campbell. On the back of the photo is the message "Richard Wheatley's Bentley, before he started on it." The photo shows the car with pristine engine and chassis, but no coachwork. The photo has come from a house clearance with a number of other photos with various family names recorded on the back."
