I should be glad to receive a report as to why we have no covered bodies for testing cars, and when we can obtain some old landaulet bodies.

I want to make it a rule that all testing of new types and all testing of 10,000 miles trials, should be with landaulet bodies (open), fitted with luggage carriers, heavy luggage and the equivalent of 7 persons.

CJ.
