Goshawk Open Car - Mr. Royce.

We finished with this car this afternoon, and as it is understood you are in need of it, we at once arranged for it to be returned to you. Holgate happened to be travelling to Derby, and we agreed that he should bring it up to you.

We understand that you have certain work to do to the chassis, and when you have completed we propose having the car returned to Hoopers for finishing off. Will you kindly let me know when you expect to be finished with the car, so that I can issue instructions to Hoopers.

C/Bs.{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager} RKW.
