| BJ. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} R.{Sir Henry Royce} c. to C. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} X7770 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG4.5.28. 17-EX. X7770 X180 X7830 We recommend that this car should be handed over to Sales as soon as Jarvis have completed the body work. With the big rush that is being made on EAC.10 this type of car will soon be obsolete as regards experimental work. We have now handed to Sales the three chassis which were made of the sports type - these are - 15-EX which was smashed in France. 16-EX which is fitted with a Barker body. 17-EX which will be fitted with a Jarvis body.
