To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} +8830 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/M5.12.25. SPORTS EAC.2. X. 8770 X. 8600 X. 8830 We send herewith N. sch. 2099 shewing a suggestion for carrying the spare wheel at the rear of the above car. This is only intended for this particular car, and therefore all the pieces which are not already existing, or part of the EAC.1. design, should be specially made by hand. Whenever possible we have used pieces previously designed. In view of what we consider the urgency of the sports car we should like this matter pushed forward as soon as possible.
