To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} ORIGINAL 18-10-23 Re Allweather, 5-G-II. X3730 We shall be pleased to have tie-bars fitted to this chassis whilst it is in Derby for engine repair. Whilst we have practically completed the designs of improved body brackets, we feel it will cause too much delay to wait until they are made for this car. We therefore think that the existing brackets can remain. Messrs Youngs have been told that they may expect the chassis back in the first half of next week. The Spare wheel centre is made of polished nickel. Will you please change this for black enamel, with sheradised bolt. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
