Dear Sirs, We should be very obliged if you could supply us with a pair of DL chains made up to suit the Bentley wheel 5.50 x 18, please fit the outside chain adjusted as on the Phantom III. These chains should be named so that we can repeat the order when necessary, our object of having these chains for the Bentley is to avoid hitting the jacking brackets at present on the chassis. Please let our tester know when we may collect the wheel and chains. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
