TRANSPORT CARS.

We have an experimental Limousine car on which we wish to cover mileage under slow speed running conditions. The chassis number is 30.G.VII. We should be glad if you would arrange to use this car instead of a Limousine Wraith for transporation service between Duffield and Belper.

Will you please arrange with FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} so that the car is garaged somewhere where it is not likely to attract attention.

It will be serviced by FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}

Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}
