| COPY. To Bn. {W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} from CJ. Copy to EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} JS {Mr Johnson's Secretary} 3/D9.2.20. I should be glad to receive a report as to why we have no covered bodies for testing cars, and when we can obtain some old landaulet bodies. I want to make it a rule that all testing of new types and all testing of 10,000 miles trials, should be with landaulet bodies (open), fitted with luggage carriers, heavy luggage and the equivalent of 7 persons.
