One year ago, Bentley specialist William Medcalf discovered the remains of a 1928 Bentley 4½ litre in a London house.

‘I walked into the house and sure enough on the bare entrance hall floorboards was a Bentley cylinder block. I saw a clutch on the stairs, then the conrods – there were literally bits everywhere and throughout the three-storey house,’ Medcalf said.

With all the parts gathered together the obvious step would have been to restore it, but William chose to take a different approach. 'It can only be original once,' he adds.
