| To RHE, X105P Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Std.12/JH. 29.9.36. Fan for Cadillac Car; As we have removed the fan from the Cadillac car and are running same on 35-EX (for 15,000 miles), this car is without a fan. In order to keep it running, will you please adopt the set of standard Phantom III blades and flange which we hand you herewith to suit the Cadillac fan hub. This only necessitates drilling eight holes in the fan flange to locate and secure the flange to the hub ( which we also send you herewith) and a sheet metal cover plate to keep grease into the hub.
