COPY. To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from BJ. BJ5/H13.4.26. 14-Tooth Axle on New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I. In order to prevent any possibility of a misunderstanding, I should be obliged if you could let us know definitely whether you agree (a) to all Phantoms sent to America in future being fitted with 14-tooth back axles; (b) whether you agree to the 14-tooth axles being used on Phantom cars for English and European customers, where the customers specially require it, or where the body is particularly heavy.
