This is to confirm our telephone conversation that we wish to get a Chrysler Coupe for investigation into body construction of this type of car. We understand that the car which we selected in London which was on the market @ £145 has been sold, but that you will endeavour to get another one of a similar type. To be sure that it is what we want, we would ask you to contact AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} of the Experimental Dept. and get him to try it before the purchase is completed. Both Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} and Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} will be in Camp next week. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
