| To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}......from Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} copy to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X5830 Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}2/IH.19.3.34. re 21.G.4. Special Touring Saloon. ------------------------- I would like to make it quite clear that this body by Messrs. Hooper & Co., has not been specially designed for the experimental chassis and that it is a Standard Special Touring Saloon Stock Body. I do not like the construction or the design, which although evolved from 20.G.4. is not so attractive or so useful. The luggage grid is by Hooper & Co., and I agree that it is very poor, but I have had nothing to do with it. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
