| DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} FROM R. {Sir Henry Royce} Copy to SG. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} DH. {D. Henderson - Showroom} TO IMPROVE RADIATOR STEADINESS AND STEERING. I want to test a frame which has very great vertical stiffness. For Phantom ll. it would be the 8" frame, without tie-rods. For the 25HP. - G4. - it would be 7". Naturally these would be stiffer at the ends. (I am especially anxious to have the front end very stiff.)
