[STAMP: REC'D ... 7 JUN 1932]
With reference to CX{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}3/KW1632., in which Sales are asking to see the luggage grid and apron as fitted to 1-J.3., we wish the car to come down here before Sales inspect this particular item, as we think we should have the opportunity of seeing it and making it work to the best of our ability before it is criticised.
We are awaiting HN.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} to supply us with one of the new combined tail and stop lights, so that we can complete the clean appearance of this car.
