8th. February, 1939.

Having told you all this I am perfectly willing to admit that this car will have an extremely limited appeal. In any case, I think this is a very good thing as it is so fast; it is very easy to kill yourself and other people if it is not handled properly.

I will try to give you a ring the next time I am down for the night, in case we can foregather.

Yours sincerely,
