To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} x4553 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}1/KW.30.11.34. 3-B-IV. This is to confirm our asking you to have this car in the fitting shop in order to have the axle control to the bottom end moved out as far as possible towards the end of the axle. We should like this to be arranged if possible so that we can quickly revert to the standard fixing to compare the effects of high speed brake tramp.
