Specifications for Limousine and Saloon bodies on an 11 ft. 1 in. wheelbase for both Rolls Royce and Bentley cars.

Identifier  ExFiles\Box 117\3\  scan0155
Date  29th September 1940 guessed
  
11 ft. 1 ins. WHEEL BASE CARS.

ROLLS ROYCE.

(a) Limousine. Six light with division as 30.G.VII.

(b) Saloon. Four light.
With Division. 3.B.50.
Without " 2.B.50.
Except that these are at present built on a 10 ft. 10 ins. wheel base.

Parts of these bodies to be interchangeable.

BENTLEY.

(a) Saloon. For people who want a big car, the saloon body (b) above, is used with a modified scuttle. This necessitates a B.50. bonnet and radiator we believe, in order to get the correct appearance.

(b) Limousine. If ever a limousine was called for on a Bentley (which heaven forbid) the limousine body (a) above, could be used.
