Mr. C.L. Hawk(Aero Engine)ins - Cheslyn Hay.
Replying to Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 10/WH.4.1.35.
Mr. Hawk(Aero Engine)ins has two Bentley chassis on order. His first chassis is B-12-DG, on which he is proposing to mount the Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) body which I sold him. The second chassis is for the standard Bentley Saloon. I do not know the number of the second chassis yet.
I shall be seeing Mr. Hawk(Aero Engine)ins next week-end, and will find out just what he is going to do about the finish of the second car.
