| To: SF/Str from JPB JPB.1.NH. 20.4.56. 2000. Chassis Ref: No.BSX.476 Mr. Francis Replying to your memo SF/Str 8/ESJ.11.4.56, herewith our suggestion for a colour scheme which would seem to comply most nearly with our customer's wishes. If it were not for his remark about grey being the predominant colour I would have recommended that the top of the bonnet up to the screen pillars should also have been painted in blue; you might put the suggestion to Mr. Francis.
