Hand-built by Pedal Power of Great Britain, this delightful Bentley pedal car is modelled after the great 4½-Litre Vanden Plas tourer, among the most iconic of all “W.O.s.”

Finished in classic British Racing Green, this nicely equipped children’s tourer is built on a steel chassis and features working pedal gear. The interior includes a mock dashboard, a rope-wrapped steering wheel, and upholstered seating for one . . . child. Dual windscreens, a tax disc holder, leather hood straps, battery-powered lights, wooden running boards, and a side-mounted spare complete the authentic period-look.

Auction proceeds from the sale of this lot will be donated directly to the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization recognized as a public charity under section 509(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code. Since 1996, the Foundation has donated over $3 million to Community Hospice of Northeast Florida, Inc., Spina Bifida of Jacksonville, The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, Shop with Cops, and other deserving charities from Florida’s First Coast.
