Chassis 80-MS. Thomas.

Mr. Thomas wrote to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} the other day, and we attach a copy of his letter. We also attach a copy of Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}'s records which show what has been done to this car from time to time.

We are sure that we can give Mr. Thomas all the braking he requires. We should like to have your agreement to fit the necessary levers to satisfy this customer. The cost will be the cost of changing two brake levers and dismantling the servo.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}

Att: Mr. Thomas' letter of 12.2.35.
Copy of Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/FHA7/HR.14.2.35.
