| to BJ. from EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} copies to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 48530 EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1.31.10.25. RE INSTRUMENT BOARDS Your BJ16/H21.10.25 and CWB2/LH{Mr Haworth} 9.10.25. have been forwarded to us by "BY". The writer proposes coming to London sometime towards the end of next week to deal with other matters of coachwork and would like to discuss the whole of the subject of instruments and instrument boards with Sales and especially the points enumerated in your letter with a view to fixing up a policy to submit to Mr Royce firstly, for immediate use and secondly, for future progress. The Writer will bring with him the latest proposals by WN. which are a patch of framed instruments all under one glass and a modified Shutter & Carb. Control. All the instruments are entered from the back of the board so that the wiring is not touched by the coachbuilder. If possible he will have a specimen of the framed patch with him. Would you kindly let him know when it would be most convenient to yourselves that he should come. EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} at "CAMACHAHenry Royce's office in West Wittering."
