Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 5/KW.29.4.35.

Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) 2 Specification for France.
===================================

We have instructed a rubber engine mounting for this car similar to that of No.1. We understand from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. that as a result of bump tests they have proved that this rubber mounting will not stand up. He is therefore instructing some modifications to overcome the trouble.
