| To Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X5830 Hal/LGS.7.26. RE. 20 HP. CHASSIS - No. 1644. X5900 We are certain, that whatever body is fitted to this chassis, it will be criticised by R.{Sir Henry Royce}, and we think it will be as well if DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} was consulted and made responsible for this body. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} has also previously controlled a 20 HP. chassis with similar steering and pedals as we are going to fit to 1644. We think the seating should be made right without the loose cushion, but this is a matter we recommend we should leave entirely to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
