ROY{Sir Henry Royce}5/MG30.9.30 ---------------- 40/50 HP. Chassis - N2 Series BY7/N29.9.30 - Thank you for the details re above. It is noted many of the details were to be released yesterday, the result being, 8 weeks from now Chassis embodying such details are due to Road Test - which I think we must all agree gives everyone very short notice as far as Production is concerned. x. As far as Radiator Section 5250 is concerned, your Memo. BY/CGS2/IG24.9.30 releasing same has not yet reached the O.O. - presumably it is in the O.P Dept., and we are urging them for same. Re Carburetter and Controls, Sections 5030 and 5240. The/old parts admittedly were released for the first 50 sets, but these were included in our Shortage List, as we are not authorised to release any of same for the L.H. Chassis; i.e., although we have authority for such Carburetter details for/the first 50 R.H.Chassis, there is nothing whatever yet released for the L.H.Chassis.
