Coverley - Production Engineer} [Strikethrough] y6066. ------------------- Wind Tone Horns - Bentley. ------------------- Last September we sent you LeC 4701 showing a scheme for mounting the wind tone horns on the standard Bentley chassis. Sales were then keen on trying these horns with a view to standardisation, and we ourselves are not aware of any change of policy. We understand that quite a number of customers have these horns fitted and we suggest that a pair of these horns be fitted to B56/BN{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} as soon as possible in order that we may have a scheme which has been tested, should Sales ask for the wind tone horn to be used. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
