600a Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Rml/R.26.1.38. We have to-day despatched 26.G.VI to London. In order that any queries raised may be answered satis- factorily, we have sent with the car Whyman, who has con- trolled the majority of development work so far carried out on Wraith cars. We are hoping that it will be possible for the car to return to Derby on Sunday evening for some spare parts, and then cross over to France on Monday. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
