24th November, 1936.

The J.R. Engineering Company,
Olaf Street,
Latimer Road,
LONDON. W.11.

Dear Sirs,

Further to our letter of the 4th instant, we shall be glad to hear whether you have yet made the lightened bumper bars, or not.

We are in urgent need of these to run on one of our standard endurance tests, and shall be glad to hear from you when we are likely to receive them.

Incidentally, we have since found that the modifications we recommended on our marked up blue print approximate very closely to the bumper bars on certain American cars.

Yours faithfully,

For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
