666a. By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. Ds. c. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} c. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Jnr.{Charles L. Jenner} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/R.20.7.39. Attached is a copy of a report from Waller on the first 6,000 miles running on 30.G.VII. With regard to the body work we think that Ward should reply to the criticisms saying what action has been taken. It is unfortunate that windscreen wipers and horns are still so unsatisfactory.
