Thanks for your Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/R.11.11.38 explaining what happened in regard to the above car and the engine mounting.

It is certainly unfortunate that I could not send it to you before the Show began but this was due to the shortage of Wraiths for trials purposes which, so far as I can see at the present time, is partly xxx our own fault here.
