| 1086 February 22nd.1938 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.2/AP. Messrs Leonard Williams Ltd., Great West Road, Brentford, MIDDLESEX Dear Sirs, Re. Packard 120.B. Chassis No.X.27751/992-1812 We find that our Packard car is now getting on for 3 years old, and should be interested to know if Packard's progress justify buying a new model. We are mainly interested in the riding of the car. If you think you can demonstrate the improvements both in comfort and the structional design, the writer would be pleased to pay you a visit next Monday, 28th inst. Perhaps the 12 cylinder Packard shows greater advance.? Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
