| X5840. PN.{Mr Northey}17/WT16.9.31. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from PH. [strikethrough]Experimental Dept[/strikethrough] 19-OL. Can you now please give me some indication as to when this car will be back in England so that I can arrange to run it a few hundred miles myself, and for others concerned to run some mileage with it in this country. I imagine this is like to be in about ten days' time, but will doubtless depend upon the period for its dismantling and examination etc..... PH. [Stamp: RECEIVED 31 SEP 17] | ||
