With reference to Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 6/LG9.6.22, can we have the limousine here (by road or train) for one day, with pedals in the latest position, this week, please?
It is of great urgency that we should have such a car before ordering 75 closed bodies.
Perhaps some kind of wooden dummies, or temporary metal ones could be made outside and the present ones removed.
B.J.
