204 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/R.9.7.37. Since wider entrance bodies are not going to be proceded with until we reach B.III, there appears no objective in incurring £125/10/- tool cost, unless Sales decide to proceed with the 3.B.IV type of body for the Bentley cars which you recently decided are likely to be made in addition to material already on order.
