Cox - Advertising Manager} tells me that he has a car which has been in service for some time which has an exhaust boom and that he wishes to try the snout on it. This car is of rather more interest to me than a new one and I am therefore trying to fix up to make the test on it. Whilst in London we will call round at Park Wards to try some of your cars if possible. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
