| To DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x9770 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG8.6.25. 9-PK CAR. x9770 x9840 We should like to know when we are likely to receive 9-PK car so that we can remove the body, wings etc. We are anxious that the car shall not be used as a demonstration car, because as we pointed out to you previously, the chassis was only rushed together with the idea of being a means for carrying subframe bodies.
