re: Chassis 7-AL Mr. Dubonnet

Experimental exhaust manifolds

We should like to know whether you have any experimental modified exhaust manifolds which could be fitted to the above [handwritten 'Series' above the word 'chassis'] chassis, if so we should like to fit a set to the above car. Mr. Dubonnet who is a well known motorist and a good customer of ours, has had considerable trouble with the exhaust system and he would be pleased to have a set fitted and tested in his car.
Up to the time of writing we have nothing further to report concerning our memo to you vis Hm{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs}/VAI3/GM.6.II.3I.
