To Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}

Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager}16/JH.13.12.38.

We are sending over to you experimental car 3.B.IV for repairs to be carried out to the front axle. The car has been dropped on to the N/S front brake drum and steering arm.

We suggest that you dismantle the front axle entirely for examination, and fit whatever new parts are necessary.

The axle beam alignment should be checked.
