SCUTTLE REINFORCEMENT. X.5430

DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} is sending a drawing of a plate we want
you to make as quickly as possible for reinforcing the scuttle
armature, for the cars being made at Barkers', and for the
several cars already out belonging to us, such as 7-EX., and
10-EX (high compression blue sports car). These two
cars would make a particularly good opportunity for test.

R.{Sir Henry Royce}
