Messrs. Park Ward & Co., 473, High Road, WILLESDEN, LONDON, N.W.10. Dear Sirs, Re: Enclosed Limousine - 29.G.6. It is proposed to finish the above car in black and fawn, the roof quarters, horizontal moulding and wings being black whilst the body panels are to be fawn. We enclose herewith a pattern AS.8475 showing the shade of fawn we require. With regard to the interior finishing instructions, these should be exactly the same as those for the black and maroon Enclosed Limousine 26.G.6. The front seat will be trimmed in black leather whilst the rear compartment as far as headcloth, seat cloth and carpet should be the same as 26.G.6. With these particulars we believe that we have now completed our specification of this body. Would you kindly return the patterns mentioned above to Mr. Honeyman of our Sales Department as soon as you have finished with them. Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of ROLLS-ROYCE LTD., Design Dept. | ||
