S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from PN.{Mr Northey} Copy to C. Ox. x7960 PN.{Mr Northey}3/WT14.1.30. 1-WJ. London Trials Sedanca. I have arranged for this car to be delivered to you at W. either on Saturday evening or on Sunday, so that it will be available for you to start operations first thing on Monday morning. I think you will appreciate the extreme urgency of getting this car back in our hands again. We are terribly short of "Phantom II" demonstration cars. PN.{Mr Northey} | ||
