| 262 W/S. C. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/R.16.3.39. We do not know whether E.R. Hall would like to convert his Le Mans engine back to standard, but if so, would very much like the special pieces off his car for experimental work. Presumably he might be induced to make a straight swop for the corresponding standard pieces, in which case the Experimental Dept. would like to buy them from him on these terms.
