XU40 Platford. 1.3.12 Re Lanchester & Delaunay Belleville. ------------------------ The people from whom we bought these chassis are very anxious that they should be returned as quickly as possible, to their Works, as the manufacturers of them are very interested in the bodies which are being built for these chassis and wish to go down and see them. Could you give me some idea as to when you will be finished with either of the chassis or both? W.Cowen.
