| 1021. 26th May, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.2/RH.{R. Hollingworth} Messrs. Wilmot-Breeden Ltd., Eastern Works, Camden Street, BIRMINGHAM.1. Attention Mr.Spicer. Dear Mr. Spicer, As I think you know, we have in mind making two bodies for the Myth, one a 4-light which we have in hand and a 6-light to follow. I mentioned this as most of the fittings will be interchangeable and I think it would be advisable to have two sets of each made, at least such things as castings, or any parts, that time would be saved by manufacturing the two sets at once. With the body mouldings, they will be interchangeable from the back of the centre pillar forward. The rear doors and quarter panels will be different. Yours sincerely, | ||
