| TO. DY.{F R Danby} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to - CL. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ORIGINAL EAC. 6. - NEW PHANTOMCodename for PHANTOM I WHEEL CARRIER. 48600 Herewith we send N./ scheme 2023, shewing a proposed form of wheel carrier for use with the New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I chassis. The step iron has been modified as compared with those previously sent, to suit the new position of the wheel, which we have discussed with the coachbuilders and which has been agreed. As we are very anxious to get this wheel carrier question settled, we hope this experiment will be pushed on as fast as possible. We should like you to make one for sending to Mr: Royce, and one for sending to London. Mr. Royce was hoping to get one of these on his car 7.EX. We do not know whether this is possible.
