| To: Es. From G.V.H. 75840 Hôtel de France, Châteauroux. 21/3/30. We are finishing the work on the car and should be again running to-morrow Saturday. We have not as yet received the exhaust fittings, these we shall expect to arrive during the week end. We received this morning your note Hol/..D.19/3/30 re Shell oil. We have made enquiries from the various garages in Châteauroux, and we can obtain various grades of Shell oil in small quantities. They have informed us that they could get further supplies from Paris. In this case we could get it through our Paris Depot. Therefore if you will let us know the grade of oil required, we will immediately get in touch with our Paris Depot for them to send us on the quantity required. G.V.H. | ||
