This is to confirm the arrangement ja made yesterday and approved by BJ. - i.e. that a fourth chassis should be built on which we will fit a covered body. When Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} was in town last week, we authorised him to go to Barker's to open up the question of their building a body, and I am communicating with Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} to ascertain what the present position is and how soon the chassis will be required for this purpose.
