S/W. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/WST. 86/53 LE5/C/2.1.35. Re Chassis No. B.47.CW. Thank you for your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/WST2/MAL.1.35. I have discussed this matter further with Messrs. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Barclay and they say that the owner of this car has previously had one of these sets on a 3½ litre Bentley and is perfectly satisfied with it. As they have had to get the set specially they do not feel disposed to change it. I have pointed out to them that we do not favour fitting a 6 volt wireless set on a 12 volt system. J.L.E | ||
