14-EX CAR. YOUR REF: HO9/JL21. 8. 28. X7770

I am afraid we cannot let you have sketches of the position of the instrument board on this car because the car is at present at WW. No doubt Hoopers who built this body could supply you with drawings shewing the position of the instrument board.

As regards the position of the steering wheel and controls, Sales have already been supplied with these particulars. The position of the instrument board has always had the same importance.
