| From F.H.R., Copies sent to: Mr. Johnson, Mr. Wormald, Mr. Nadin, Mr. Bailey. Re 2300 and 2301 Experimental cars. One of them should be built to suit the open body which is here, therefore it will be the "C" type column and a lighter springing. If an old body is to be fitted one like the body which is here or a similar one would do. If a new type of body is to be made I should prefer it to be of the parallel type, similar to the drawing sent for Dr. Campbell Thomson. There is, I think, about 40" allowed between the upholstery. The side levers on these two chassis should be definitely inside the body and they ought to be of the new and simple type which Mr. Bailey has in hand for the 4 speed gear boxes. F.H.R.
