To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} X4553 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}11/KW.3.10.34. 5-B-IV. Attached is a specification of 5-B-IV, which as far as we know is up to date. Will you please discuss it with Les.{Ivan A. Leslie}, Std., Hdy.{William Hardy}, Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} etc. and alter it or enlarge on any points that are not sufficiently adequately specified, and let me have it back. The car will be back from the Coachbuilders early next week. I think we could with advantage give a final diagram showing the ultimate brake layout, as this has been changed rather a lot.
