Burned Bentley Body.

Re your memo: Hn {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 34/1/25.5.34.

We are under the impression that the present
rear wings on 2-B-IV are the original ones.

The original front wings we have here at Derby;
these have mouldings swaged on and are of the flare type.

These are the only wings we have and if you can
make use of them we will despatch the same to Park Wards
at the earliest opportunity.
