RE CHASSIS 1EX AND 49GB.

When you have refitted 49 GB, this car, which is not saleable, would suit my purpose as well as 1 EX, which is saleable, but I should want all our newly standardised parts fitted to 49 GB. Perhaps this would be a good car to which the starter as intended for earlier cars, could be fitted.
