BJ. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG10.1.22. X4240 GOSHAWK 11. RADIATORS. X4240 X3780 Referring to your BJ8/H5.1.22. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} has asked me to reply. We propose sending a Goshawk chassis to Messrs, Hoopers in order to have a limousine body fitted to it at the end of this week. With that chassis we will send three different types of radiator so that they can be judged by Sales Dept. on the complete car. This, we suggest, would be much more satisfactory than trying it on a dummy chassis. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
