| S/W. (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) DOOD BURNED BENTLEY BODY. Park Wards say they find the back wings are not those originally supplied with the body and that they do not match the front wings. Apparently the back wings have mouldings swaged on to the outer edges, whereas the front wings are plain. Are the original wings still in existence please and, if so, will you kindly have them sent down to Park Wards next time you have a lorry coming this way? Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
