| x4522 To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} c. to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/R m.12/KW. 23.10.34. Fitting of Wilmot Breeden Bumper Bar on 25 HP. Car. The 25 HP. car which Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} is running in London suffers very badly from front end movement. He has therefore asked us to fit the larger size Wilmot-Breeden bumper bar with a view to reducing the trouble. There is no scheme in existence for this. Will you please make the necessary parts to enable this bumper bar to be fitted to a 20/25 HP. car. We should like the scheme to be something that could be offered to a customer.
