S/W. c. to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Bag. X6016 Hnl/I/17-11-32. Dictated 16-11-32 D/BP/HDL/WS16-11-32. CHW-178 - STOCK CAR. It was intended to make use of this chassis for Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}, but the body we have earmarked for him is not ready for mounting, and will in fact not be ready for some weeks to come. Consequently we shall use up the chassis elsewhere, and you had better send it along to Lillie Hall. In Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}19/I/15-11-32 to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst we asked for an experimental set of Three Charge Scheme parts to be fitted to this chassis on the assumption that it would be used by Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Now, however, we are to allot it elsewhere the Three Charge Scheme parts should be held up until we can give you the number of the replacement chassis for Cx.{Major Len W.
