It was built by Park Ward in 1929 and fitted to a six & a half litre Bentley engine. We have paperwork to trace the body all though its existence until today where we find it on the Hispano which it fits and suits beautifully. There are numerous photographs of the body being fitted to the car.The interior of the Hispano Suiza is dark green leather to the front and rear seating areas, the rear seats being of the occasional fold down variety with the leather extending also to the door cards. Carpeting is a matching green with fawn wool headlining being fitted. There is a large easily operated sunroof in situ for summer motoring. Unusually, both the front and rear windows hinge open allowing for a huge volume of cooling air to pass through the cab for more tropical motoring.The dash board is a magnificent item made from Ivory and contains a correct set of the original requisite instruments. The various switches have a knurled finish and a delightfully tactile feel to them in operation.
