Left-hand Phantom II Chassis for R.R.A.I.
-----------------------------------------

On Monday the 12th inst. OY. showed to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} his blue
print 16981 for moving the front step-iron towards the rear
of the chassis to be suitable for short running-board, and
asked whether this could be incorporated in the Second
Experimental Car.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} asked me to tell you that he has no objection,
assuming that the carrying out of the scheme makes no material
difference from the point of view of Production Chassis.
