Re Bentley Lamp Brackets outside Frame. I have found that in view of your request that we should remove the outside headlamps from this car before it went to the Coachbuilders, this work had already been carried out, and we are not therefore changing it back again. Bentley 5, however, which will be at the Coachbuilders in 10 days, will have the outside lamps and will be available for inspection as soon as the wings are fitted.
