Dear Leslie, Chassis delivery had become so difficult by the time I left the Show on Wednesday night that I asked them to allot you one and get you fixed up. As I pointed out to you, you can hardly lose by definitely booking a chassis. You will therefore be receiving an order form in due course. I hear to-day that delivery on the Stand is at the end of February but this is probably a fictitious date; I should not be surprised, however, if by the end of the Show you will find it quite a problem to get hold of a chassis when you want it unless you definitely have one on order. Yours sincerely, | ||
