Transformations : mixing Rolls-Royce and Bentley



Bentley Limousine et Rolls-Royce cabriolet : two models that could have existed...

When searching pictures for a future post, i came across two pictures of oddities that are worth a bit of attention.

A little wink to my friend JP who made these models witch certainly were at a time planned by DINKY, obviously the parts were made to and the models are so similar. They surely could have been but sadly were never produced. And although this transformation is very easy compared to others, it is rarely seen... To do this, JP' sharp eye was necessary, and I think also he should have thought that they were not enough existing variants !...

At the start, two models produced at the same time : the #198 ROLLS ROYCE PHANTOM LIMOUSINE and the #194 BENTLEY SERIE S COUPE

By swapping only the grilles, JP had produced a BENTLEY LIMOUSINE and a ROLLS-ROYCE CABRIOLET. Isn't this stunning ?
