GOSHAWK CARS FOR PARIS SHOW. X4219 V3609

CJ. and BJ. were at Derby on Thursday last and agreed that with your approval they would like 4-Goshawk-11 fitted with Hooper open touring body and 7-Goshawk-11 fitted with the Maythorn Saloon body in Paris during the Show. We are arranging to have these cars fitted up with all the latest modernised parts. We hope to have the shutters on the front of the radiator.

We will arrange for 4-Goshawk-11 to call at WW. before it crosses over. It is impossible for us to say exactly what day that will be - we anticipate it will be the end of next week. We will let you know later definitely when it will arrive.
