| To BJ. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 78830 78774 HsS/LG29.10.27. Replying to BJ13/E27.10.27. It is certain that the tests of the complete Sports car will be delayed owing to the fact that the bodies will not be ready! We are still waiting for a considerable amount of information from WW. but we are able to proceed with the main essential alterations. Although we shall not have a car ready for France at the end of Nov., we can still carry out tests on the existing Sports car to prove out the pieces. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
