| 8th March, 1939 W. M. {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Cowen, Esq., Rolls-Royce Limited. have had with them on the subject, and naturally I should be interested to have their views. To be perfectly frank, a 1940 type Bentley with a body on the lines of the one illustrated, but, as I say, further modernised by me when I really get down to the latest details, would be a fascinating car for me to own next year. Any way, pull it to pieces as you wish! Yours sincerely, (Signed) GEOFFREY SMITH DIRECTOR | ||
