Re Old Double Coupe Labourdette Body

X393

Sn{Mr Sanderson}42/B19913.

Attached please find copy of memo I have this day sent to Mr.Platford with reference to this body. Will you kindly arrange accordingly.

RECEIVED. SEP 19 1913

With reference to the Open Touring Body ex chassis 2369 (Salamanca Trials) as you did not wish to have the hood off this, I understand from Mr.Cowen that he arranged for Mr.Loder to have the hood in question, and we were to take in place the hood off 2212. Would this hood off 2212 be of any use to you? If so, kindly advise what you would give us for it, as we do not want to scrap it if avoidable.

You will remember you offered £80. for the body without the hood.

D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} Sn.{Mr Sanderson}

W Mercer
