| PRIVATE V7960. S/W Rb.{R. Bowen} C11/C26.6.30. With reference to our conversation on the telephone as to when we shall have a Demonstration car ready with the increased pressure and long chassis frame, this will be about the middle of August. Do you think your friend will wait as long as this, or will it be worth while giving him a run now on the Open Touring car you recently converted? Of course we do not want anything to be known about this particular improvement, as we have any amount of the other cars in stock. C. | ||
