CxG/AW19.4.34.

It seems clear from all the correspondence
that for our Olympia Show cars, i.e. the latter half of 38,
we are to have the sheet metal crossmember moved back - for
wells in the floor and the dropped front crossmember, which
incorporates of course the new arrangement for the starting
handle.

These will both be useful points, one enabling
us to give a much better Continental body and the other
improving the appearance.
