a great deal of the material is on order, practical-ly no work has been done on the car in the works, as very little material has been received by them.
The completion of this car is necessarily some distance ahead.
With reference to the six Northcliffe and six Williamson chassis, very little headway has been made as yet in the works as only certain sections have been completely instructed, whilst other parts - particularly the engine only minor details have been instructed, but we are urging forward now both the Northcliffe & Williamson chassis and also chassis 3000. I hope to report at greater length in a few days re the position of the Northcliffe & Williamson chassis.
