London, N.W.1.

Dear Hall,

Herewith a blue print of the car as you took it away.

You will appreciate that though I have made no suggestions as to alterations to the front of the car, I imagine that one or two variations will be tried, possibly with plasticene, when the models are actually being tried in the wind tunnel.

Yours sincerely,
