E.Platford, Esq.,

24th Septemebr, 1936.

EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}20/MH.{M. Huckerby}

Many thanks for your two letters, and for sending my 'Phantom III' back to London.

I have only been able to drive the car a few miles since its return, but I must say the action of the clutch is tremendously improved, although there is still a little "judder" when ever thing is really warmed up.

I think your man will confirm that this was quite noticeable when he delivered the car.

Howeverm I will not make any more comments now, but will drop you a line when I have done another three or four hundred miles.

I must also thank you for the comments on the body, and these will receive our immediate attention.

Yours sincerely,

(Sgd)
A.H.Pass.
