RE. 20 HP. - ALL-WEATHER - HEADLAMPS. X.4090 X.4555 We do not think the revised scheme of dipping head lights will be perfected in time to be fitted to this car. We therefore wish you to send the coachbuilders two lamps RB.{R. Bowen}65 with the necessary brackets so that they can provide this car with fixed lights. It will be possible at some later date no doubt to fit a set of dipping lamps. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
