Dear Sir, We have decided to fit the car radio set you left with us to one of our 40/50 experimental cars, the body for which is now being prepared at Messrs.Park Ward, Ltd. A covering order for this set has already been passed on to you. The speaker is to be mounted behind the rear seats facing to the roof and the direct control set on the left of the instrument board. We have asked Messrs.Park Ward to get into touch with you when they are ready to wire up the set as we wish you to approve the installation and aerial efficiency. Will you therefore kindly make suitable arrangements with Park Ward's accordingly. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
