SPRINGFIELD CHASSIS. X3614

The only American car which the Expl: Dept:
have actually handled is a Silver Ghost(1907 40/50 historic RAC 15,000 miles trial) type of car which
was sent over here in 1925.

We attach a copy of a report from R's on this
car which confirms our views.

We also attach a copy of a report from Ps. Paris
of an American Phantom car.

2 copies of each
report attached.
