HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/RH.{R. Hollingworth}2/SW.6.5.40.

Silver Phantom L.H.

In reminding you of the conference held on 20.4.40 it was decided that Specification and details for the above car would be completely issued to HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/RH{R. Hollingworth} by the 27.4.40.

It is now the 6.5.40, and still no details or information for such major pieces as Frames & Fittings, Radiator, Petrol Tank etc., etc.

Will all concerned please make an effort in order to give the Machine & Fitting Shop a start.
