Bailey - Chief Engineer} " " Ox. " " E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} " " Sp. {Mr Spinney} (Paris). Bodies for Experimental Bentley Chassis. With reference to our Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 1/MK.3.7.35, and our telephone conversation of this afternoon with Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} , we regret the misunderstanding about chassis numbers. It is now clear that you still want the Standardised Saloon by Park Ward for 6-B-1V and further that the Van Vooren body is to be mounted on Chassis No. B.23-AE. Will you please let us know quickly how you will want the Van Vooren body finished. We take it you would prefer a different combination of colours than those already settled upon for the Park Ward body for 6-B-1V. Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
