| c. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Bm/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} Ds. 666 CONFIDENTIAL. 8th. February 1939. BY.12/N. Messrs.Park Ward & Co.Ltd., 473, High Road, Willesden, London N.W.10. Dear Sirs, Re: Enclosed Limousine 30.G.7. We thank you for your letter of the 3rd.inst. and for the patterns of leather and cloth to which we agree. The waist moulding should have a fine white line or lines. Would it be possible to add a small chromium moulding such as we have proposed for the B.50 mock-up instead of a fine white line on this body? The chassis for this car will arrive in about a week's time, but the body should go on with all speed in order that delivery may be made of the complete car by two weeks from that date as suggested by yourselves as the minimum time required after the receipt of the chassis, working overtime. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. CHIEF ENGINEER - CHASSIS. | ||
