W/S - BKL. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}

Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}19/JH.29.6.38.

We are returning the chassis drawing today, apart from the fact that no step irons are shown and that the radiator or cap would look better set lower as on Phantom III, everything looks good.

We are not yet in the position for Mr. Clark to finish off the engine, but should the opportunity arise while you are away no doubt your office would let him know.
