To C. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} +8390 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG2.1.28 : 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. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
