Bentley Blower 1930

[Guest]

I recently bought an old tinplate 1/12 Bentley Blower very cheap off the internet and it was in a very sorry state!
So I decided to do some work on it
This is the result :-

Yes James Bond drives a 1930 Blower Bentley in three of the 007 Novels, Casino Royale, Live and Let Die and Moonraker. In the books, Bond drives one of the last Blower Bentleys built
