| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x263 E.1/HP.5.10.35. re Van Vooren Body - Bentley. I understand that the Van Vooren body Bentley car has been seen up here, and I should like to have an opportunity of trying it before it is sent away from Derby. I missed trying the Bentley with the all metal body as this could not be spared. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
