| 200a S/W. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} 3-B-IV. Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}15/KW5.9.38. I note from your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}4/R2.9.38 to hand this morning that you cannot yet hand this car over, as you require it for further carburetter tests. If therefore you will please let me know in due course when you have finished with the car, we will then deal with the question of non-standard features. Perhaps you can in the meantime give me some rough idea as to how long you wish to keep it. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Hives | ||
