| To DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ORIGINAL Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG7.1.26. R-R SPARE WHEEL CARRIER. 48600 We should like to know whether you intend to make any modification to the RR. spare wheel carriers to overcome the breaking of the bolt. We realise that we have an alternative type which has the 2 tubes coming away from the framr which is free from this fault. Our impression is that the single larger diameter tube makes the neatest looking wheel carrier. This type is fitted on to 7-EX car which R.{Sir Henry Royce} is using.
