Dear Mr. Hopps, Thank you for your letter of the 27th October. I would personally recommend you to have the new Park Ward body. I have seen this in process of manufacture and am convinced that they are now making a good job. By the time you take delivery we shall have had a considerable amount of Continental testing on the new body, but really all the improvements which have been made to it have been the result of defects shown up under Continental conditions. Yours sincerely, | ||
