| S/W. BP. Copy to: Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 78490 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} CWB1/GM/1-2-27 Control for exhaust cut out. You will have received a copy of Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG28127. Would you please see if you can find some satisfactory method of attaching this rod [handwritten: or these rods] to the chassis by wire or string so that it will not be damaged whilst the chassis is in transit or at the coachbuilders and the position must be such that it does not require to be moved at all by the coachbuilders and it must be reasonably accessible for removal after the body is mounted. If you can find such a place I suggest that you arrange with Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} that all chassis be delivered in this state for the future. CWB. | ||
