To DY.{F R Danby} from E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHO. 86117 E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}1/HP.14.6.34. re SpectreCodename for Phantom III Ignition Wiring. We send you herewith:- LeC.3958 showing bakelite sparking plug covers. Will you please instruct the mould to be made. We think these are much to be preferred as compared with the standard Lodge weatherproof terminal, because they will safeguard against the fire risk in having petrol pipes and carburetters between the cylinder Vee.
