With reference to Hd {Mr Hayward / Mr Huddy} /MW2/KW3.11.31 and Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} 10/KT.4.11.31, we have referred this subject to Sales Dept. who state that there is no demand for second-hand bodies for Phantom II chassis; in fact it is almost impossible to find a buyer for a second-hand body for any type of chassis. It has been suggested that we should dispose of both these bodies locally as it is not worth the expense of sending them to London. In view of the fact that 'Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ' has no use for these bodies, we suggest 'Hd {Mr Hayward / Mr Huddy} ' should approach some local coachbuilder and obtain an offer for disposal.
