| X3730 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to CJ. R4/M1.9.25. 7-Goshawk-11. X.4219 X.3730 I have repeatedly cursed the body on this car, and think it would be an everlasting disgrace to the 20 HP., if we sold the car with such a body in its present state. It is too heavy, and especially top heavy - (Maythorn limousine). R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
