Put it on air suspension and nice fitting wheels, maybe some VIP exhaust and you'd have a nice VIP style Bentley. I'd rather see that than some lame econocar done up the same way.

If you can afford it, by all means do it. Keep in mind just cause the car is in the mid $30 g's, maintance is still that of a 20 year old $300,000 car. Dont think your going to find any parts at the junk yard either, everything is dealership prices. I have thought about the idea as well but I dont see stretched tires lasting very long on a 3 ton vehicle since I can barly go 4 months on a 2 ton vehicle.

LoL!! No Beef

Bentley > Century = Bentley Greater than Century
Bentley < Century = Century Greater than Bentley



Oh, and Widebody is Soooo right about having to up-keep a car like a Bentley!! that older Bentley should be owned by someone who COULD buy (or currently owns) a new one. Its an enthusiasts car now and should be treated as such.

It's a bargain now but check the price of a new windshield


hell, even a gas cap
