SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} SPORTS PHANTOM. X8830 This is to confirm that we are preparing two bodies, to be completed in 9 weeks from the date of order, provided the coachbuilders receive the chassis within three weeks of that date. If it is wished for us to keep this programme it will be necessary for you to provide us with two chassis in about six weeks time; one chassis would not be enough to enable us to produce the bodies simultaneously.
