| S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X180 C3/C24.11.28 With reference to our conversation on Thursday, I am glad to note you hope to be able to let us have an experimental chassis in a week or two's time that we can allot to the School for instruction purposes. The only reason we want to change the present chassis is that it has the old type of change gear, whereas the majority of the pupils now going to the School will have the new type on their own cars. When you have a 20 h.p. available I should like to know of this also, for the same purpose. C. | ||
