| Accounts from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X3730 HsS/LG29.9.22. With reference to the attach invoices. We wish you to take up with Sales, whether Hoopers should not have done most of this work free of charge. It was a new body and the car had only been used for 3/4000 miles and they were obvious faults which should have been corrected before the body had been sent away. We have marked on the invoice the points we consider we should not have been charged for. We have signed one of these accounts - the other two we have no knowledge of. It is necessary, now that production Goshawks are being made, to make sure which Goshawk car these parts are obtained for. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
