| S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X150 C13/C26.10.28 Re Cars for Instruction School ------- The two cars (40/50 h.p. and 20 h.p.) in the Instruction Class have done about 70,000 and want an overhaul. Apart from this, the Phantom is getting out-of-date and we would like to give them another Phantom chassis which has:- 1. Hydraulics. 2. The new type change gear. 3. Possibly balloons. 1. and 3. could easily be fitted, but not No.2. Do you happen to have an experimental chassis with No.2. on it that you have finished with, or are likely to have finished with in the near future, please? As regards the 20 h.p., we have an ex-experimental on our list that I think might do. C. | ||
