| W/S. x 3496 S.F.C- To HO. from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/TMW. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/TMW3/LG31.12.20. X.3456 RE. MASCOT & RADIATOR CAP. With reference to your sheet ref: 5289. We find on enquiring, that the stud referred to is, and always has been, sweated into the Mascot. Apparently a modification is desirable here, no doubt due to the fact that people use the mascot for screwing the radiator cap on and off and this is receiving our attention.
