Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 3/LC1.3.26.

SIDE MEMBERS WITH EXTENSION FOR LUGGAGE
GRID FOR NEW PHANTOM(Codename for PHANTOM I)
X8400

With reference to C2/C24.2.26. 8-EX is at the present time completely dismantled. We expect it will be 2 or 3 weeks before it is running again.

11-EX car which has been run by Sales for several months, has the extension at the back of the frame.

We could arrange, when 8-EX car is running again, to send it to London for Sales to examine.
