We understand that some time ago a plain bonnet with 3 "Flip-Flap" shutters on each side plate, was instructed by you for fitment to Chassis No. B-104-DG (Mr. Huntley Drummond). We wish to try a similar type of bonnet on one of our experimental cars and would be pleased if you could furnish us with a copy of the bonnet specification. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/G.H.
