Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} & Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} both inspected the fixed radiator shutters on 3-B-4 and compared them with the standard car.

Approval was expressed at the appearance and a memo will be sent confirming this. Satisfaction was also expressed with regard to the proposed high reading water thermometer.

The question of weighing a steel Bentley body in section was discussed with Mr Thompson of Park Wards, they are very keen to cooperate with us and every assistance will be given including detailing a man to help with weights and photographs.
