Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG6.10.23.

It would appear now, that we shall be requiring
bodies for E.A.C. chassis. We have recommended that
6 Expl: E.A.C-3 cars are built. If it is agreed to, we shall
require 6 Bodies. We have suggested that after the tests
are completed the cars could be used as Trials Cars. We
should therefore like you to keep in mind that these bodies
are likely to be required.
