20/25 ENC. LIMOUSINE BY PARK WARD & CO.

Park Wards tell us that this body will be ready for your lorry to collect from their Works at 473, High Road, Willesden, N.W.10. any time after 9 am. on Friday next the 16th instant.

Will you please let me know by return what arrangements you propose to make for the collection of the body so that I may advise Park Wards to have everything in readiness.

Not having received the bonnet, the coachbuilders will send with the body two lengths of moulding for you to attach to the bonnet together with spare cans of colour, the step boards, lin-rubber covering, etc.

The instrument board has been cut for the standard group of instruments as supplied with Phantom II chassis, the normal switch box but no space has been cut out for the petrol gauge.
