Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Bwg. {J. C. Bowring} 11/KW.21.3.34.

Vulture(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine) Petrol Tank Filler Air Vent.

Will you please make another set of Vent parts as to those you are making for 2-B-IV (Bn {W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} 's car), for the above car.

This vent scheme should be fitted as soon as possible, as the Vulture(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine) tank leaks petrol badly through the present vent scheme.
