| 1097 4030 Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/12/ML.25.4.40. PURCHASE OF SMALL CAR FOR MYTH INVESTIGATION. The Studebaker is now being rebuilt for sale. We should like your agreement to buy what we consider to be the best of small cars below £200. I have tried quite a number of them lately and do not like any of them but one or two seem as if they could be made passable if we got to work and spent a few pounds on them. My idea at the moment is to try and make one of these small cars passable, and then use it as a model for the Myth. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
