EV {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 2.7-7-25. cont.

(4) We cannot hope to get the cut of wing or the class
cont. of paintingss and varnishing of Messrs Barkers at
such a second or third rate firm.

We would like to have permission to send Messrs Barkers a
standard chassis with only the necessary features added to allow
the use of the sub-frame . These they have already seen on chassis
9 PK.
