also shews the revised gearbox, the lowered front floor and the sheet metal dash. These features should be shewn on your full size drawing for the Short wheelbase Bentley 2.B.5. as they represent what will be fitted to that car as well as 1.B.50.

The writer will call on you in the course of a few days to clear up a number of smaller matters which are too complicated to deal with easily in a letter.

The work on this 1.B.50 body is very urgent, as delivery is required early in April.

Yours faithfully,
FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
