| X3730. Bs{A J. Barnes - Assistant Manager}7/KW12.7.21. S/W. X180 ----- X3730 Re - Body for Goshawk II. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}8/LG7.7.21. We have consulted Mulliners, who recommend that the body should be sent by rail. They can do all that is necessary in the matter if you will let us have instructions. It would not be possible to send the body back on Goshawk I chassis as there is a difference in the measurement between the two Goshawk bodies, and the body could not be fitted. The body includes windscreen and hood, the mudguards and running boards are being utilised for the Goshawk II body at present in hand. These could be sent on to you later after the Goshawk II body has been inspected. Please let us know what you wish us to do. C/B S.G. | ||
