TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to BJ. ORIGINAL R1/M24.9.26. re. CAR FOR WW. X8770 X8830 X5770 We must have a car at WW. with good protection against the weather, for visitors as well as ourselves. Where is the chassis 7-EX. which I had in France last winter, for which a body has been waiting all the summer? We think you had better send it as best you can if you cannot get all the parts suggested in my memo. of 13.9.26. Items 4. 5. 6. & 7. are awaiting solution Generally I should like to have at WW. a very nice enclosed 20HP. (fixed cabriolet)., and sportive 40/50. It seems worth while for sales purposes, etc. 860 27. Sep 1926 R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
