E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) with Conventional Front Axle. Herewith is N. Sch.4417 shewing a provision on the camshaft bearing for an oil drain and shield, should it be necessary to apply centralised chassis lubrication to this bearing. We have also shewn a more powerful pull off spring which we expect may be required on account of the system of brake operation on the axle. N.Sch.4417 herewith.
