Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} +8770 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG5.10.27. PHANTOM 'SPORTS' CHASSIS. +877+ For the purpose of keeping records, it would be a great advantage if the Phantom sports chassis was given an EAC. number. We are likely to have a number of changes in the sports car which/would be very confusing to keep records of unless there is a distinguishing number. As WW. allot the numbers, we recommend that they give us a number for the proposed modified Phantom. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
