EAC. 8 CHASSIS.

We have received your wire in connection with the above.

We have mounted the body on the EAC. 8. chassis.
There is still a lot more work to do on this chassis. We have only just received the detail drawings for the fixing of the hydraulic dampers on the rear.

We will let you know immediately the car is ready for you to try.
