| DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} From Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C. to Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} C. to Wmr. X 7120 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/AJ.20.6.30. 26-EX. CONTINENTAL CAR. We wired you yesterday to say that the chassis could be delivered in ten days. We wish it to be realised that the car will be sent away without being tested completely. It should be assumed that after the body is fitted it will take 14 days before this car can go away as a standard car. If it is decided to fit any additional new parts to this car the time will naturally be longer. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
