NEXT B.V. FOR FRANCE.

In view of the time available it is almost certain that 9.B.V. will go to France and not 10.B.V. Will everyone please make sure that parts are available to bring 9.B.V. up to the exact specification of the first 50 production cars so that the car can leave for France at the beginning of February.

Will Cr.{Mr Cra???ster / Mr Chichester} please collect in one memo, instructions to HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} to manufacture the necessary parts in time.
