| S/N. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}..From Bkl. LES Bkl.5/5.6.35. SpectreCodename for Phantom III. Will you kindly let me have a plan-view of this chassis that we may prepare the drawings for the catalogue. I understand from Mr. Clark that the exhaust manifold which he has sketched may be altered. If this is done will you kindly let me know at the first opportunity so that the necessary corrections may be made. We can finish off the whole of the engine drawing with the exception of the manifold. I should like you to let me know your suggestions regarding the parts of chassis-drawings to be included in the specification. For your guidance I sent you the existing catalogue on the 30th ult.
