Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wym. {G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} 5/MH. {M. Huckerby} 20.12.37.

WRAITH III REAR ENGINE MOUNTING.

In reply to Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /10.G.13.12.37 re making a depression in the U section of the cross member Fd. {Frank Dodd - Bodies} 1409 and carrying it the whole length of the section, we think a sample member should be made up and fitted to 26.G.VI car before it goes to France. Will By {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /NS. {Norman Scott} please supply a new detail as soon as possible. It does not appear to be a big job.
