D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} 28-4-14. B.P. In reply to your memo P17/IJ18414, please note that Mr Haldenby reports that we can build up a chassis out of the parts of one of the chassis which has been used on the bumping machine, say 1714. It would have a new frame and quite a lot of other new parts; it has a"B" steering, but this can easily be changed. Do you think that the above would be suitable? p.
