Mr. C.L. Hawkins - Cheslyn Hay.
Replying to Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}10/WH.4.1.35.
Mr. Hawkins has two Bentley chassis on order. His first chassis is B-12-DG, on which he is proposing to mount the Peregrine body which I sold him. The second chassis is for the standard Bentley Saloon. I do not know the number of the second chassis yet.
I shall be seeing Mr. Hawkins next week-end, and will find out just what he is going to do about the finish of the second car.
