This is to confirm that we agree to your working any overtime that may be necessary to ensure that the saloon body shall be ready for us to collect on Saturday noon, April 8th.1933. We have arranged for our lorry to call, and will let you know in a day or two when we shall wish you to send your men to mount the body. With respect to the coupe the same remarks re. overtime apply, in order that we may collect it on Saturday April 22nd. 1933., at noon. The only outstanding instruction is that for the instrument board. We are now able to confirm our telephone conversation in which we agreed that the boards on both bodies shall be the same as that used on the saloon already delivered, but using two framed patches of which you will by now have received prints from either West WitteringHenry Royce's home town or Derby. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS ROYCE LTD. EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
