You are making some tests on the SpectreCodename for Phantom III car in the garage to determine what is wrong with the brakes. We want a 2-B-A hole in one of the brake shoes, close to the pivot of the Hancock shoe. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} has given his consent to this, and I am sending you this note for your information.
