| Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}4/EH. (Cont'd). (2) If you have any suggestions regarding the coachwork artistry, we would be glad to receive a 1/16 scale scheme of your proposals. When making suggestions, we suggest that you should keep in mind the fact that the body will be a fully tooled job, and will not have to be fashioned in a way to age quickly. At the same time we would like to receive from you a preliminary cost analysis, based on an output of 100 per week, using pre-war prices. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
