Referring to your memo. Bs{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager}/6KW/10.8.21. You mention that there is a small Limousine Body built by Messrs. Hooper for the original Goshawk chassis. I think the Coachbuilders could say whether it is practicable to fit this to Goshawk 11. We would say that it is impossible to make a good job of it. We are likely, however, we keep Exp. Goshawk 1. running for some time. Could you let us have further particulars about this body and send a drawing of it.
