Thanks for your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/AD51230. I have discussed this matter with C. and we have agreed that we would prefer that you should fit back into this chassis its original engine which you have. This will bring the chassis back to standard and will enable us to sell it, and this we are anxious to do as soon as possible. Will you please say, therefore, how soon you will be able to let us have this car with this changeover and with the coachwork completed by the Derby Coachbuilders. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} [STAMPED] RECEIVED 10 DEC 1930 HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
