| To: BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /HD. {Mr Hayward / Mr Huddy} .. from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} 6/N.24.5.39. Lucas Headlamps. Enclosed please find samples of enamel which has flaked off the back of one of the latest headlamp reflectors. The car is the one Mr.Lappin uses. Almost half of the enamel has peeled off. This would most probably affect dipping lamps, but the one in question happens to be the stationary lamp. Have you come across this feature before?
