Dear Sirs, We have recently removed the black four light saloon Bentley 'B' body from its chassis at the conclusion of its Continental tests. The chassis has been entirely dismantled and scrapped and we have built a new up to date chassis to which we wish to fit the body. The wings require a certain amount of repairing and repainting etc. We should be obliged if you could arrange to send some men up to mount the body, repair, repaint and mount the wings etc. The chassis is now complete and waiting for the body to be fitted, and we should be greatly obliged if you can arrange to send your men immediately. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
