Bentley T1, 1976, #SBH24509. The Bentley T1's bodyshell was identical to that on Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow chassis; the models were distinguished by radiator shell and badges only..

The Bentley T1 was the stablemate to the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I. One advantage of the chassisless monocoque construction of the bodywork when compared with previous models was that it was almost lightweight. Hence the 6.23 litre V8 engine gave the performance of a sports car. Permanent development ensured the highest attainable degree of safety. The well-proven V8 engine could be specified in one of two compression ratios - dependent on the quality of petrol that was likely to be encountered. Only James Young with a series of 15 two door saloons and Pininfarina with one coupé built to an important client's special request tackled the task of creating special bodies. The Crewe design team succeeded in finding what generally is acclaimed nowadays as the finest solution. Their eye-catching two door saloons and convertibles by H.J. Mulliner, Park Ward became available from 1966 and 1967 respectively.
