Dixon - Fuel Systems}7/JH.14.6.38. ----------------------- Your memo received on the 16th. so it does not leave much time for your investigation. The car is generally at Lillie Hall, so I got to know from le Evans, and he can give you the full history of the car, petrol etc. From what I could gather the car has had intervals at the Coachbuilders, and been held up several weeks. I have just enquired and find the car is still at Lillie Hall. It is a Sales car. GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
