Dear Sir,

Re. 31.G.Vll Enclosed Limousine

As there is no vital hurry for this body, it has been decided to wait for correct accessories and not to use the Winglamps, heater etc which you have informed us you can get from Sales.

Wing Lamps
A pair of B.V. Type will be ready in about a fortnight.

Heater
A R.R. Marston of improved design will be available in 2 to 3 weeks.

Wind Screen Wiper
A Lucas wiper with integral defroster ducts is ready and will be sent to you.

All of these parts will be sent direct from the works on Mr.Leslie's instructions.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS ROYCE LTD.

CHASSIS DESIGN OFFICE.

To. Les + Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}

Will you please let us have a copy of any letters which may be sent to Park Ward & Co Ltd on this subject so that our records of instructions may be complete.
