Lying in the corner for 50 years, the decaying Bentley supercar is still being auctioned for 60,000 pounds

Despite being covered with dust to the point of decay, the antique Bentley was still successfully auctioned with a high price.

According to TheSun , a 1935 vintage Bentley was bought new by wealthy Australian businessman Philip Bushell.

The Bentley is for sale at a garage in Shaftesbury, Dorset (UK) and a local farmer James Young has paid £1,050 to own it. After that, the car was stored in the warehouse from 1968 until a storm damaged the roof of the warehouse last year.

Fearing that the car would deteriorate in the open, a family member of James Young decided to put the car up for auction. Surprisingly, the Bentley, which had been abandoned for 50 years in a warehouse, immediately received a lot of attention from classic car enthusiasts, even though it would cost a lot of money to repair it.

In the end, the Bentley was sold for 58,000 pounds . Plus the fees, the car costs a total of 60,000 pounds. Not only that, it is estimated that the new owner will have to spend £ 100,000 to restore it to its former luster.
