re B.56.BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington}
This car has been ditched and as far as we can see only the petrol tank has been dented and the cross steering tube bent.
The cross steering tube should be changed and the petrol tank straightened out.
Will you also please have the chassis tracked up, and examined for further damage.
