9-PK CAR. x9770

We should like to know when we are likely to receive 9-PK car so that we can remove the body, wings etc.
We are anxious that the car shall not be used as a demonstration car, because as we pointed out to you previously, the chassis was only rushed together with the idea of being a means for carrying subframe bodies.
