| S/W Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}: X7230. C2/C5.12.29 Exhaust Heated Throttle ---------- Up to the present we have sent two Phantom II chassis to America, viz. chassis Nos. 11-WJ and 69-WJ; and we have just delivered chassis No. 11-XJ to the coachbuilders for Mr.Blumenthal and this will probably be exported to the United States just before or just after Christmas. Will you please let me know what you recommend in regard to the exhaust heated throttle. That is to say, do you recommend we should send two out to the American Co. to fit to the former chassis, and also one for Blumenthal's chassis if you do not have it ready before the car leaves England?
