| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} c. to RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} c. to AJL. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}3/WJ.15.9.30. X.7250. X.7960. X.7518. CENTRE POINT RADIATOR MOUNTING. We have arranged to replace the Experimental parts fitted to 1-WJ. and 80-WJ. with the parts that have been standardised on the centre point radiator mounting of 24-EX. The two cars will be at Cricklewood on Monday the 21st.inst., and we have arranged to send somebody down to shew Cricklewood how to fit them and to try them after they have been fitted. Will By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} please instruct two sets off, and will RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} please see that we have them completed by the end of the week. We suggest that a few sets should be put through in the works to deal with any complaints which may arise, which will prevent us having to continue making the parts experimentally.
