RE: CHASSIS 4.B.50. "CRESTA".

Will you please arrange to send the following parts to Messrs. Park Ward without delay for the above car.-

F.T.67 Centre Lamp. 1 off.
DB.{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}1837 Centre Lamp Bracket. 1 off.
Bentley Monograms - Red Centre. 2 off.
Wind Tone Horns. 2 off.
Transverse Stays. 4 off.

One pair of transverse stays was used on 12.B.5. and require replacing, as they were taken off a standard 25/30 HP. chassis.

Will you also arrange to send a man down to Messrs. Park Wards to alter the radiator and bring it in line with the latest Horn Mounting Schemes PD.423 (2 sheets) and PD.472.
