Honeyman - Retail orders} c. to E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X8992 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 2/ME.17.12.30. 27-EX. We did not weigh 27-EX chassis before it went to the coachbuilders. We can say, however, that it will be approximately the same weight as a standard chassis. We consider the addition of the shock absorbers will about compensate for the weight we have saved in the road springs. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
