| SOC copy Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Copy by HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} SECRET. N 8830 Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/18-10-24 Re Enclosed Limousine EACII. We send herewith N Sch 1859 showing an Enclosed Limousine mounted on a long Chassis C Type 40/50, - so designed that it will fit an EACII 'C' Steering. The Chief features are the 145 dimension to the squab from the bottom of the wheel & the EAC shape of dashboard. If you can allocate a chassis we will get by to fit the required shape of dash to a raised 40/50 Radiator. o We understand that if possible you will obtain a stock body & have the seat & scuttle modified, failing that a body would be constructed to our drawing. No wheel carriers would be required, as there can be fitted by the Expl. Dept. after delivery. | ||
