With reference to the jobs about which we spoke to you yesterday :-

(1) Large Bore Unit. We understand that this is promised for the test bed for the week end. We have allotted 1-B-IV for this unit. We anticipate we shall want it on the test bed for about two days.

(2) You will arrange for a Tinsmith to make the necessary pieces for the noise insulation scheme on 1-B-IV to the instructions of Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rhyman.

(3) We are asking you to hand over to the Repair Dept. one set of 10/43 axle gears, and one set of water excluders. These are for chassis B-10-DG.

(4) Supercharger with diffuser for B-12 unit.

(5) You will give us a date for the completion of the 4-bolt rear bearing crankcase for the Bentley.

(6) You will let us have a provisional date for the completion of the scheme where the shock absorbers are moved to the extremity of the front axle on the Bentley.

(7) You are seeing whether you have sufficient parts to build another SpectreCodename for Phantom III unit.
