| BJ. from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X.4555 HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 3/LG21.9.23. Referring to your BJ3/DN19.9.23 attached. The only set of dipping head lamps of RR. design fitted to the 20 HP. is fitted to 4-Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine))-11 car which is at present with R. {Sir Henry Royce} at WW. R. {Sir Henry Royce} is not satisfied with the arrangement as fitted to that car. Also, owing to the standardisation of the larger lamp, a number of pieces will need modifying. When we have a set built up with the latest modifications we will send the car to Conduit Street for Sales Officials to criticise. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
