| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X500a Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Bwg.{J. C. Bowring}22/KW.4.12.35. 21-G-IV (Large Bore Engine). We wish to remove the Autovac from the above chassis and have fitted an S.U. Fuel Pump to Lec.4809, the details of which are being printed to-day. The fuel pump is the same as SpectreCodename for Phantom III, and we will hand you one of these when required. We should also like the petrol tap deleted and a warning light device incorporated with this scheme. Lec.4817 could then be incorporated, showing the petrol filter on the 2nd crossmember. Will you please instruct for this work to be carried out. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/J.Bowering. | ||
