Huckerby}2.11.33, I note that it is not wished that the experimental car should be used for demonstration work. I would point out that originally we understood you were prepared to give a few demonstration runs on this car. We are therefore getting into touch with the various people in the vicinity of Derby, trying to arrange runs for Wednesday 15th instant. The car should arrive in Derby between 4 and 5 p.m. Saturday. The original run for this car in East Anglia has been cancelled, but we have another run for it during Saturday morning. Bly{B. W. Bleaney - Bentley Sales} | ||
