RE D.F.P.

We purchased the D.F.P. chassis this afternoon and hope to have it at Lillie Hall tomorrow morning. If we telephone to you immediately the chassis arrives at Lillie Hall, can you arrange to send somebody down to take it back to Derby ? We will rig up the chassis for driving, but it is understood that when you get the chassis at Derby, you are going to have a body fitted on in accordance with R's instructions.
