TO HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM EV. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork}

BENSPORT(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley). 100. M.P.H. CAR.

Although for the moment the idea of producing a 100. M.P.H. car has to be put on one side, I am sending to you the rough sketch which I produced to shew Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} what I thought we could do.

I would be glad if you would let me have any comments as to its suitability.
