| X7530 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} c. to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} c to Bony Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn{Mr Robinson}4/LGL3.12.28. INSTRUMENTS. After completing 20.EX. we shall have one complete patch of instruments left. We shall therefore require complete sets for 22.EX, 23.EX and 21.EX as we will use what we have for 16-G.4. For three sets, therefore, we propose to order up the necessary cream dials and instruments as we are now dealing with these items on experimental cars. With regard to the remainder of the dozen sets requested by DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/M11.12.28. Will you please deal with these as they will apparently be used on production. Will you please instruct the necessary parts made by RR. for these three patches to be used by Expl: cars.
