EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/6.2.26. We would not recommend that we go to the expense of purchasing a closed body for EAC.8. until we have seen the open body. It is possible that EAC.7. may catch up EAC.8. so that EAC.8. would not go into production. We think it is fairly certain that subframe bodies will not be used until we come on to EAC.7.
