The Blower Bentley is back! These amazing images have been produced to show how a resurrected version one of the most famous Bentleys ever would look. Called the Dynamo Concept, it's the work of stylist Marc Senger who has paid homage to the 1929 Bentley 4½-litre – a supercharged racer that competed at Le Mans – and the famous 'Blue Train' Bentleys of the 1930s.
Like that machine, the Dynamo Concept is all about speed – and stays faithful to the original incorporating its famous forebear's design cues. Just check out the open front wheels, double-hinged bonnet and the 4.3-litre four-cylinder engine, complete with its externally mounted supercharger.
Faired-in headlights and a sleek Continental GT-style rear end completes the head-turning shape. What's more, Senger has even designed a retro-inspired trailer, called the Zombiebus, to transport the Dynamo Concept to race meetings.
Despite producing 175bhp – a huge amount of power for the late 20's – the original 4½-litre Blower Bentley never won a major race as reliability was poor. It fell to the even larger-displacement 6½ Litre car to take the chequered flag, winning at Le Mans in 1929 and 1930.
