| 8180. S/W........Wov. C..........Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C..........BP. Whr {Mr Wheeler} 10/Dl3.10.32. RECEIVED 1932 Re: Chassis 25-EX. Further to our telephone conversation with BP. yesterday, we met Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} last night and discussed with him the question of the above chassis. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} informed us that the chassis could now be spared, - in fact he considered the present was a good time to dispose of it. There is not a very large number of non-standard parts on the chassis which would have to be replaced, and further, Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} could use the coachwork for another experimental car. Therefore we are offering the chassis for sale to a prospective customer who insists on having a left-hand car. We will let you know if we are successful in effect-ing the sale. WAr. | ||
