Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} re Cadillac. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X1729 As it is important that this car should be available for comparison purposes with SpectreCodename for Phantom III, I should be glad if you would let me know how soon it will be again in running condition.

Sidgreaves - MD} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Yes plenty, which being those collected have been designed & by other people as Curios. WAC | ||
