x 293 HB{C. E. Harcombe}/L1d.5/KT. May 4th 1933. Messrs Park Ward & Co, Ltd, 473, High Road, Willesden, London. N.W.10. Dear Sirs, Will you kindly arrange to send your men up to Derby on Monday morning next, to mount the blue Bentley 'B' body on its chassis. At the same time we should be obliged if you will arrange to have the various faults corrected on previous bodies, which were pointed out to Mr. Ward during his recent visit to our works. We find that no switch was provided, with the blue body, for controlling the lights in the hood. Will you please send one along on Monday; the type required is the push and pull instrument board switch similar to the one provided on this body for the windscreen wipers. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
