STANDARD PHANTOM - NEXT 10,000 MILES.

This is expected to be ready by _______

Supposing Mr. Elliott can be spared to come here
it will be good if he came by this car and stayed here a
few days, sufficient to settle a few outstanding points,
and then to save time he could return by train - 20 hours
journey.

If this can be arranged we shall be able to make
my rough drawings of the Sports Phantom carburetter. (R-R
staright through expanding) understandable and suitable
for the space available.

It is to be hoped that the slot induction pipe
will be tested, and will help make it possible to finish
with the exhaust heat and the objectionable valve in the
exhaust pipe.
