RE DISCS FOR BENSPORT(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley) AND PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine).
It has been agreed that we should have a set of discs for wheel such as those used on B.3. or Pere. 2. so that we can see whether the discs look too flat. You suggested that we got a set for the Bensport(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley). Will you please send a Bensport(Codename for 3 1/2-litre Bentley) wheel to Messrs Park Ward & Co. at their Works at Willesden when we get a set made.
