- 2 - that we will in some measure, be in the hands of sub-Contractors, as would any other coachbuilder. I should be glad to visit Derby and see you and Green, but I have so much on hand just now that it is difficult for me to get away. Could you not arrange for Green to come down here with the drawings of the body so that we could make a start, leaving my visit until the situation here has eased a little, which I hope will be in the near future. Yours sincerely, P.S. By the way, the "Silver Ripple" body was ready last Friday as I arranged, but I have not yet received delivery instructions for it. | ||
