| x7770 To DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x7400 Hsl/LG20.11.28. We are very anxious to have a luggage box fitted to the SS.{S. Smith} when we bring it to WW. towards the end of next week. Without the box we are afraid the appearance will look rather peculiar with the large gap between the body and the wheels. We thought if we could get hold of the box without the inside fittings, it would be all that was necessary. Will you please let us know whether it is possible for us to collect the box either next Tues. or Wednesday. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
