| X327 To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} E.1/HP.27.4.35. re Frame Rigidity. We are in very urgent need of the data respecting the torsional rigidity of frames, including Cadillac and SpectreCodename for Phantom III, as we have got to make up our minds what can be best done with the Bentley. We should, therefore, be glad if you could let us have an interim report if the final investigation is not completed. We also want the weights of the Cadillac and SpectreCodename for Phantom III frames. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
