Custom Packard Engined Bentley
Posted on December 29, 2010 in Automobiles:
Chris Williams has produced an extraordinary machine, a Packard-engined Bentley called “Mavis” that’s more powerful than a Bugatti Veyron.
She boasts a 42 litre engine and is a tribute to the pre-Second World War behemoths that used to lap round the Brooklands circuit. Williams built the vehicle on the weekends over the past seven years.
She uses a Bentley 8-litre chassis with specially fabricated parts and a V12 Packard engine from an American Second World War motor torpedo boat
