| ORIGINAL TO DY.{F R Danby} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} [Note: 'DY.{F R Danby}' is struck through] Copy to - HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}4/M14.7.25. Handwritten notes (right margin): X8690 X8250 X8240 'X' SERIES - RADIATOR SHUTTER CONTROL ETC. It is very probable that we shall want to revert to the shutter control shewn on N.sch. 1854., modified however in some respects, so that we cannot say go ahead with N.scheme 1854. at the present moment, but we expect to send you a drawing in the course of the next day or two. We are expecting to use the framed instruments on this series. Incidentally we expect to alter the position of the distribution box on the dashboard, and therefore slightly modify the wiring conduits, dashboard control etc, all of which we hope to send you in the course of a day or two.
