| 84027. To Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} From Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 5/MJ.31.12.32. Re. PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine). Replying to Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 4/KW.29.12.32. The final silencer will be arranged with the exhaust snout in a similar position to that on the present 20/25 and P.2. As regards the petrol filler, this is very little different in height to the 20/25. On some of the Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) cars we have which are the close-coupled Continental type we could not do with any less height on the filler. Also the present height is necessary in order to fill the tank and prevent splashing. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
