| S/W. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} †3317. CWB6/GM/27.3.28. Re: 20 H.P. Buick. I have had a letter from Mr. W.W. Constantine, 111, Grosvenor Road, S.W.1. through whose kindness the Buick car was loaned to us, saying - "I shall be very interested to hear what your people think of it, especially from the point of view of the Harmonic Balancer. I am expecting to sale for the States during the next 2 or 3 weeks. Are there any particular points I can take up over there for you"? I know you were intending to write to General Motors people after having tried the car, but I do not know whether you have yet done so. Perhaps you will let me know and at the same time let me have any questions to which Mr. Constantine might be able to get useful answers from Messrs. General Motors of America. CWB. | ||
