"Phantom" Chassis - K.L.G. Plugs We have now come to the point of almost despatching the 50 Phantom Cars in which it was agreed to fit K.L.G. sparking plugs. This leaves us with 30 Chassis in the Department still fitted with these plugs in various stages of testing. What is intended shall be done with these 30 sets of Plugs, in view of the fact that we understand there are now some lodge plugs available. If these K.L.G. Plugs were taken into the Test Dept. stock as tackle, there will be an extra charge against the cost of testing, which is not desirable. On the other hand, it might be thought desirable for these plugs to be taken over by the Stores, and re-issued on the 20-HP. Production job. Will you please let us have your instructions.
