| TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to OJ. R4/M1.9.25. 7. GOSHAWK 11. I have repeatedly cursed the body on this car, and think it would be an everlasting disgrace to the 20HP., if we sold the car with such a body in its present state. It is too heavy, and especially top heavy.- (Maythorn limousine.) R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
