| S/W. X8830 CWB3/LH{Mr Haworth}17.11.25. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RECEIVED 18 NOV 1925 re 93-NK. Weymann Body. With reference to my memo - CWB21/LH{Mr Haworth}16.11.25. I wish to make a correction. After further consideration, it has been decided that it will be unfair to the test of the Weymann body which is being carried out at the same time, to load it up with two or three cwts. of lead in the rear seats. It has, therefore, been decided not to add any additional weight as ballast. The weight of the car, number of passengers, amount of luggage, and other particulars remain as in my memo of yesterday. Will you please, therefore, arrange the springing to suit. CWB. | ||
