.... US plate TNF 519. "In 1966 Phil acquired a Bentley Blower, which was no ordinary Bentley. It was the car owned by a brilliant engineer called Amherst Villiers, which he used as a test-bed to develop the famous supercharged Bentleys for Bentley Boy Tim Birkin back in 1930. Phil owned the car until 1988 ..."

.... which means it's the ex-Charles Amherest Villiers car registered GP 42 (both before and after its American adventures), chassis MS3937, listed as 1931 Vanden Plas Supercharged Sports Tourer
