TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/M15.7.26. 7-EX. X8770 X8570 X8380 R.{Sir Henry Royce} was enquiring yesterday about his chassis, and wonders whether you have it in Derby, and what you have got to do to it. We shall be sending you some stiffeners for the jellying scuttle which we shall ask you to make and supply to Barkers, to fit in the place of those already on the body. We may also have some revised subframe supports to be fitted. Instructions for both of these we hope to let you have in the course of a day or two.
