Bentley / Mr Barrington} - Mr. EMBIRICOS With reference to the scheme (Blue Print N° LEC.3995) which you sent us a short time ago in connection with fitting Hartford shock absorbers to the front of a Bentley chassis, we shall be glad if you will please let us know the approximate cost of the fittings needed in connection with this work, also how long it would take the Works to supply the parts in case we need a set. For your information, the owner of this car would like us to let him have an approximate estimate in connection with the above. We could obtain the shock absorbers in Paris. VA. | ||
