ROY{Sir Henry Royce}16/MG19.8.36 P.100.R TYPE HEADLAMPS Further to ROY{Sir Henry Royce}7/MG4.8.36, we had a visit yesterday from Mr. Oliver Lucas and Mr. Neill, and the question of the detailed design of such Headlamps was discussed fully, E, Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}, Wst being present. As a result Mr. Lucas now has a definite idea as to what is actually required, and is submitting shortly drawings detailing the scheme as suggested. He is leaving for U.S.A on September 2nd, and it is just possible he will try and see you in London with these drawings before he sails. You will understand, however, he is somewhat pressed for time.
