| X.3421 To: EH. From: Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} RE SHUTTERS OR SLIDING DOORS FOR BONNET. Will you please bear in mind that the present sliding doors fitted as standard to the 40/50 chassis bonnet appear to be rather more expensive than the advantage which they give warrants, and a modified design should be considered as soon as possible. Perhaps you will consider the possibilities of this job when you have time. Bn{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} | ||
