The sale is being handled by Bonhams, which notes on its website:
“The current vendor purchased this car from John Entwistle’s wife via Hanwells in West London seven years ago and then sent it to Coway coachbuilders in Bolton to be totally refurbished. The car has been kept at an estate in Perthshire, Scotland where it was mainly used for grouse shooting, and has been garage stored in a ‘bubble’ to maintain ideal air temperature.”
The car will be auctioned as part of a car and motorcycle sale at Beaulieu, National Motor Museum on September 7. It is expected to sell for between £12,000 and £16,000.
