-2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KW.30.1.36. We suggest that Park Wards should be allowed to build a body to meet with the approval of Sales and the Experimental Dept., and that we should put in hand a chassis to incorporate the central change. At present we have a completely obsolete experimental Bentley car, 3-B-IV, which could with advantage be sold as soon as the new chassis is nearing completion.
