| HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} ORIGINAL SECRET X5830. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/W6.5.29. 17-G-4. Mr. Park was rather upset because he had dislocated the whole of his factory to have the Weymann body for 17-G-4.modified by Tuesday last, and then we'did not bother to collect it; as he puts it. We quite appreciate that it is not always possible to get the means of collecting a body, but if you had given us word we would have arranged to have had it shifted to Lillie Hall. You will understand cases like this make it difficult for us when the next occasion occurs on which we want them to do some sort of rush job.
