Date  2nd January 1934
  
To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork}
Re Vulture(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine)
Has this car got hand overriding control to the shock absorbers, & if so. is the control on the column or on the instrument board.
If it is on the instrument board we shall have to cater for it.
Would you please send me a wire tomorrow to Conduit St, before lunchtime, as the instrument board is held up to some extent for this feature.
I hope to come up to Derby on Thursday morning & see how the wings are going on.
Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork}
LES See me
