Mr. Grylls,
Rolls Royce Limited,
DERBY.

On the Pontiac, soft and sloppy though it is,
he can have the satisfaction of tearing off a big
hunk of steering angle without being far off.

It seems a pity we cannot import the Bonneville
salt flats and put some of these theories up to practice.
Where can we find a big acreage of flat acreage?
concrete

Yours,

Maurice Olley

Maurice Olley.
