| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X200a Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}15/KW.16.1.36. 6-B-IV. In view of the fact that neither a bumper bar nor Hartford shock absorbers can be fitted to this car if the springs are shackled at the back to the EX arrangement, we agree to the present standard method of shackling the springs being fitted.
