| S/W {Sales / Derby Works} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X407 C24/C20.6.24. Re Mercedes. With reference to your Ms7/LG18.6.24., I am having enquiries made as to whether there is any possibility of getting hold of one of their racing cars which is fitted with a super-charger, and whether they ever made a 28/95 with a super-charger that they would sell. I am also seeing if I can arrange for you to see samples of the smaller cars. In the meantime I enclose herewith some literature dealing with the super-charger, apparently extracted from "The Autocar" and also specifications of the 16/60 and the 12/40. C. Instruction Book etc in Box (Pamphlet) | ||
