| Y180 To WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG9.1.25. 7-CA CAR. X682 We have an old obsolete 40/50 HP. chassis which we wish to dispose of. We do not think it is worth trying to sell it because the frame, engine, springs and gearbox are obsolete and scrap. It might however be made into a useful chassis for testing axles and gearboxes. If it is not required for this purpose, we recommend it is sent into the Repair Dept. and dismantled so that they could use the parts they can and the rest can be scrapped. We cannot afford the room to store it. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
