Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG26. 2. 29.

'SS{S. Smith}'. X140.

I am afraid it is impossible to XX give you
the exact date when 21-EX car will be handed over to you for
test. We have the car running at the present time but we
are not satisfied with several features.

We do not wish this car to go away until it
represents a car which we can produce and sell.

We are certain the car will not be handed over
to you until after March 4th. but we hope it will be shortly
after that date.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
