Dear Sirs,

Re Enclosed Limousine Body for
Experimental Chassis.
-----

In reply to your letter of the 21st ult., we regret that we have not an All-enclosed Limousine body of our own build in stock, either new or secondhand.

We have, however, a secondhand Limousine body of the Buccleugh type, and also an All-enclosed Limousine body, which we believe was built by the Daimler Co., and put on a Rolls-Royce Chassis.

If you would kindly let us know if you think either of these bodies will suit you, we shall be pleased to get them out ready for your inspection.

We are, dear Sirs,

Yours faithfully,

Barker & Co.Ltd

(Sd) H.Y.Nutt.

P.S. We have a new limousine body built to your order for Nobel, would you like to use this?
