Very cool, but it's strange to me that the owner and article keep stating "street car". Umm...NOT!

That's cool and all, but once you do all that to a Bentley, it's no longer a Bentley anymore. If he was going to do all that, why not do it to a car with a lighter chassis that costs less money?

96 and 08 911 turbos
he only paid $30k for it and recouped most of that selling the parts.

seems like a cool concept to me, but of course its no longer a bentley.

It is certainly unique..but to claim "wants to keep the street car image" is pretty hard to do considering that full race interior. I understand the jungle jim bars for safety, but not the race seats, sheet metal interior, etc.
