S/W Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hyman Bentley Y.R. ✓ Please look after coachwork C8/C4,12.40 800 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/SW30.11.40 I note you think a 4 1/4-litre car will do and we happen to have one left. This car we have just spent quite a bit of money on to make it fit for sale. The number is B-24-GA. Would you like me to send it up to Derby at once? This car belonged to Raymond Mays in the first place and was eventually transferred to the School. I hope you will take as much care of the coachwork as you can, because we are finding it impossible to get any work done nowadays. C. P.T.O. | ||
