BENTLEY 50. CHASSIS 2.B.50.

As the frame on 2.B.50 is 39.250 from the rear axle to the rear end, and not 41.000 as shewn on F.CD.1020, will you please detail a rear bumper bracket 1.750 longer than the one shewn on F.CD.1020 in order that the rear bumper may be correctly positioned in relation to the body tail.
