Messrs Barker & Co. have informed me that IO.EX. will be ready for me to take out and test the coachwork by tomorrow, Wednesday the 16th. I propose, however, giving them a day's grace and calling there on Thursday after lunch. As I know that you are very interested in this car I wondered whether you would care to meet me there as it would give you a chance to get any little detail attended to, and if all should be O.K. you could take the car back with you. You had better wire me at Barkers if you are coming as by the time you get a wire to me here I may have left. EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
