| To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X500a Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Ery.3/KW. 7.10.35. 21-G-IV. As the gearbox from this car has done about 40,000 miles' running and will require a considerable number of new parts to bring it up to scratch, we suggest booking out from production a new gearbox and fitting it to this chassis.
