CAR WORK. X7770 / X1906

Although we have to admit that during this last few weeks car work has been over-shadowed by the aero work, the parts have been going through the shops.

We are now clear of urgent aero work and the cars will come along very rapidly.

A complete S.S. chassis will be running in 4 to 5 weeks.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
