| X8830 S/W. (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) ------------------ We shall shortly come into possession of a second-hand 40/50 H.P. normal wheelbase Chassis No. 158-AG, which has the steering column in the "B" position., and which we shall try to resell. It occurs to us that you may have a body which we could have mounted on this Chassis, and so be able to offer a complete car instead of a bare chassis. In this way our chances of finding a customer would be increased, and in addition of course we might be able to relieve you of a body for which you have no further use. Perhaps you will look into the matter, and let us know as quickly as you can if you have a body which might be suitable, and which you could let us take over. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}/Hn{F. C.
