| Ex. FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} C. to SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOH. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} PEREGRINE 2. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/M19.9.31. X4027. In order to make sure that the revised Peregrine 2. chassis will be suitable for receiving modern coachwork we have made N. scheme 3346. herewith showing a six light saloon on the chassis. We have made this body to have the internal length of the same type of body on the Humber 16/50HP. We have improved on the latter due to our lower frame and rear seat cushion, both of which are bad on the Humber. Will you please send SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} a print, and return the original to us. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
