30th October, 1941.

Messrs. Mulliner Ltd.,
Bordesley Green Road,
BIRMINGHAM, 9.

Attention of Mr. Hart.

Dear Sirs,

This confirms our visit to your Works yesterday, October 29th, with reference to Saloon and Limousine bodies for our Senior Range chassis, when blue prints of our eight scale outline drawings of them, together with notes on construction and fittings, were left with you. As requested, we are sending you herewith another copy of the Notes on construction and fittings.

It was arranged that you would let us have quotations based on an order from us for 100 six light and 100 four light bodies, the four light bodies being supplied with or without divisions, as required.

You will let us know the length of time you would require before commencing production, after receipt of our order.

In addition, you will submit sketches showing any modifications to our designs that you suggest.

Will you please note that hinged windscreens with chain control are required for all models.

Yours faithfully,
