-2- I am glad to hear that it will only take a week to complete the cars when they are returned to you at Derby. 6. We shall send you a complete car (namely, one of the chassis delivered by HP. fitted with a touring body) as soon as possible, as we are anxious to have a second demonstrating car here to give trial runs to the press. We are most anxious for the press to have runs as early as possible in October, so that the descriptions may be in the papers well before Olympia, but we cannot afford to use Mr.Royce's car for this purpose if it leaves us without a demonstrating car for customers to try. When you receive this car will you kindly give it the earliest possible attention to see that it is returned to us without delay? B.J. Encl: List. | ||
