https://www.pinterest.com.au/pin/221943087867245876/ Bentley S Series, Hooper coachwork, I think design 8430, but 39 examples, so not necessarily the one above referenced. -- Last edit: 2020-12-14 22:17:03 |

And behind the Bentley is a Rolls Royce, probably Silver Cloud. You can just make out the Spirit of Ecstasy. |

No. 8430 was the most requested Hooper design. Odds are in your favor. |

If design 8430, Oct 55+. Noted that Hooper did several very similar designs in 84xx and 85xx series with only small detail tweaks to separate them, but maybe only as one-offs or a handful of examples, so as said above, 8430 seems most likely. |
