103-MC CAR.

Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG18.6.26.

It would suit us quite well if you could arrange to send this car to Derby on Wednesday next the 23rd.

It will take us 3 or 4 days to fit the hydraulic dampers and decarbonise the engine.

We will let you have the present friction dampers back with the car so that they can easily be changed over if you require to at any time.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
