1935 Bentley 3.5 Liter Cabriolet was originally owned by Prince Aly S. Khan. Part of the specifications ordered for this one off cabriolet by the Prince were an enclosed rear mounted spare and a rumble seat. This Barker bodied Bentley saw several subsequent owners. In 1978 a thorough restoration was completed by its current owner.
