Copy to :- HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} A.{Mr Adams} C. 11. SPORTS BODY. X8830 We enclose herewith a print of N.scheme 1810., made by modifying a standard chassis print. We return herewith also the specification and drawing as supplied by Barkers, and on both we have made our comments. We believe that this will enable you to put the body in hand, and that you are sending these enclosures, together with a print of our N.scheme 1826., so that the body may entirely conform to Mr. Royce's wishes. We would like to receive Barkers criticisms should they have any. In the course of a day or two we will send you a print of N.scheme 1828., the second body, which we should like you to order as soon as you can see your way clear.
