| W/S - Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} c. to Mx.{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} X 360 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/KW.30.1.36. 34-EX. Replying to Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}6/KW.24.1.36, no decision has yet been made as to whether this car is going to be brought completely up to date. It will probably be raised at the next Conference. We think that it ought to be put in a condition where we have to make no further apologies for it, in which case it will be at least 6 weeks to 2 months before all the parts necessary are available.
