X500a To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}13/KW.30.1.36. 22-G-V.{VIENNA} Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}6/E.22.1.36. - in X300 We understand that 22-G-V is making good progress at the Coachbuilders. Being a new chassis, which has had little or no testing and none whatever with the body fitted, we think it is imperative that it should be checked over at Derby before you try it. This we will do as speedily as possible. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
