Phantom III Rear Rubber Buffer.

Referring to HPS {Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} /RH. {R. Hollingworth} 2/CB.3.3.37, we agree to a 2-BA bolt being fitted in the place of the tubular rivet now used, and suggest that if BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} will carry out the alteration it should be instructed on production. The bolt head should be to the outside, when it appears to clear the brake drum on bump.
