Referring to EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}5/29-4-29, we confirm having advised you by telephone this afternoon that the Weymann Saloon body will be ready for your lorry to collect from Park Wards Works at 473, High Road, Willesden, London, N.W.10. at 2 pm. to-morrow (Wednesday) May 1st. We have sent Lucas, Birmingham, an order to send you direct quickly the head, wing and tail lamps, and we have asked our own Stores at Lillie Hall to send you a pair of Homa instrument board lamps. We have told Park Wards to hand over to your driver with the body the nickel Cobra horn which has already been fitted, on the assumption that this will be wanted. We should have preferred to have sent you a black horn, but we have not one in stock and it would take at least a fortnight to obtain one. Hmd | ||
