Huckerby}27.3.34 re BENTLEY BONNET --------------------- A query has been raised by one of our outside men that the brass hinges used on the side bonnet hinges of the Bentley clash rather with the general black and white colour scheme of the Bentley engine and bonnet, and suggests that consideration should be given to bringing these in line with the general black and white finish.
