| To DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}: from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Y5830 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG3.1.27. 20 HP. AND PHANTOM (EAC-V11) BODIES AT HOOPERS. Y7830 We have carried out the necessary alterations to the 20 HP. subframe at Hoopers so that as far as we know there is no reason why the body cannot be completed. As regards the body for EAC-V11, we think that Hoopers should be impressed with the importance of completing this as soon as possible. This car is expected to go to Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence next month. We believe Hoopers imagine they are to receive the chassis; it should be pointed out to them that the body will have to be mounted at Derby. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
