Vintage Tour, September 5-10, 1993
KL3598 (1929 4½ Litre) Wylder tourer - Owner: W. Ford

"Not all bodies on W. O. Bentleys were Vanden Plas tourers or Weymann saloons, witness a lesser known body builder - Wylder. What a task to prove originality of coachwork to a judge's satisfaction!" — From the article 'Travels Through New Jersey', Vintage Tour, September 5-10, 1993, by Rita Victoria Gomez, MD and Photography 1993 K. & M. Karger
