To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Lp.{Mr Lappin}

Re your Series '40' Buick 8 cylinder car, I am informed by General Motors Export that they do not expect to receive any of these cars before the Motor Show.

They are apparently only making about 4000 cars a month and these are being absorbed in the U.S.A., so that it is anticipated none will be available for export for several months.
