Hornet is an unstable car, and am trying to get bought out by the insurance Co instead of having it re-built.

If I succeed in arranging this, I will be on the look out for another car.

I understand the "Alfa Romeo" may be available soon and would like to discuss this when I see you on Monday.

My brother's latest effort is a Wizard he has put the engine into a Lancia underslung chassis and it is a 100% job.

Yours Sincerely

Ranald W Hawker
