I note the cost of this conversion job and I think we would like to do first of all the car belonging to Captain Van Neck, as we had already promised him that whenever we got a device to cure this trouble we would fit it. Will Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}, therefore, please let me know when he would be able to do this job and we will then approach Capt. Van Neck. C. | ||
