J.3. BODY.

Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} was on the 'phone yesterday and asked whether it was essential that we should have J.3 body before the Easter holidays. To do this would mean Park Wards' working considerable overtime, which we should have to pay for.

I told him that if we had the body sometime next week it would be satisfactory.

Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} is to let us know what day we can go to collect it.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
