Six Light Saloon - Silver Dawn - 32-G.V11 ------------------------------------------- We attach hereto PD.448 - 1/16th. scale of the Six Light Silver Dawn car. The body is that of the B.50 mock up, which was seen and approved by Sales and Derby. All we have done is to raise the waist moulding and change this design to conform to the R.R. bonnet and radiator which is the Silver Wraith. We instructed a body to be put in hand immediately to this design. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
