SPORTS CHASSIS. +8830

We expect to have a complete sports chassis ready for a body sometime next week. We should like to know when we can expect the first sports body to be delivered to Derby.

We have received today several schemes from DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} in connection with step irons and mudguard stays. We are pushing ahead with these as quickly as possible, and as they will have to be hand made pieces, it may be a little time before we can deliver them.
