We send you herewith drawings numbers LeC.1235/1240.
The former shews the alterations required to the dimensions of the "Buzzard" bonnet, and also illustrates a four-seater body which should be made for the model.
A body should also be made for comparative purposes for the 40/50 H.P. model, and this we have shewn of similar proportions to the body on 1 EX. at West WitteringHenry Royce's home town.
Would you kindly issue the necessary instructions
