Re: Bentley 50 - 1.B.50.

We enclose herewith a copy of a memo we have sent to Messrs.Park Ward & Co. re the body for 1.B.5. and our visit.

It is necessary that this body should go ahead without delay as a chassis will be available.

We are working hard at the remaining outstanding chassis features desired by Messrs.Park Ward's i.e. the Radiator and the dashboard.
