1-B-IV Saloon.

Will you please fit up a set of controllable dampers on the above car similar to those on 4-B-IV, so that we can demonstrate to London the effect of controllable dampers on a Saloon Bentley.

As nearly all the parts are similar to Ph.II production, we suggest that you should book out a set of parts in order to urge the demonstration.
