4¼ LITRE BENTLEY.

ANTI-JAGGER DEVICE FOR FRONT BRAKES.

The number of 4¼ Litre Bentley Chassis which are to be modified with the Anti-Jagger Device for Front Brakes is 491. Fifty of these have already been modified, leaving a balance of 441 Chassis still to be modified.

The Cost of incorporating this modification is £4. 5. 0d. per Chassis, therefore the Total Cost of modifying the 491 Chassis will be £2,086. 15. 0d.

We will arrange to supply the necessary Material for the changeover as soon as the various Depots let us know their requirements.
