Hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} Re After the War Chassis. -------------------- With reference to your Hy{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer}1/NJ21016, Mr. Johnson asked me to see if I could get two second-hand bodies. I know of two bodies, one an enclosed limousine and the other an open touring body, which would be suitable for these two chassis at £15 each. They are at Barker's Works. Would these do? If so, we will arrange to purchase them. New bodies at the present time would take a long time to build, and of course would be extremely expensive. Perhaps you will let me know. C. M | ||
