| EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/I 9th March, 1933. Messrs. Park Ward & Co. Ltd., 473, High Road, WILLESDEN, N. W. 10. ATTENTION MR. PARK. Dear Sirs:- BODIES - BENTLEY 'A'. We are now able to give you revised dates for the delivery of the Saloon and Coupe bodies for the Bentley 'B'. We shall require the Saloon to be ready for delivery on Thursday, April 6th, 1933, and the Coupe on Wednesday, April 12th, 1933. When next you have men in Derby, will you please carry out such modifications as are necessary to the Open body already delivered to make it suitable for the latest B.4. chassis. Your Mr. Sparks has received the necessary instructions. We believe that the wheels originally intended for this car and painted red have been used and that a new set of wheels will be required. These will have to be sprayed red by yourselves. Yours faithfully, | ||
