Dear Leslie, Your chassis is on test now, and they have promised to do what they can to get it away quickly. I anticipate that it should not be later than next week. I ordered the body to be sent to Park Wards about three weeks ago, and I find that it was despatched then so should have been there for some time. I am going down to Park Wards myself on Friday and will find out what has happened to it. I will see if I can find anybody interested in B-12-DG, but most of the people I know of who were crying out for cars seems by now to have been satisfied. Nevertheless, there must be plenty of London traders who would be very glad to get hold of a car, but I expect you want to do it direct if you can. You should certainly write to Bleaney of our Sales Department, and see if he can put you in touch with anybody. Yours sincerely, | ||
