| x4522 To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FJH{Fred J. Hardy - Chief Dev. Engineer},21/KW.19.12.34. We have a Stabilising Bumper Bar which is tuned to a higher frequency than any we have previously had, and we want to try this on Staniland's car, chassis B-157-AE. As this is only an experimental trial we do not want the dumb irons drilled out to 0.500, but want the Stabiliser to be secured by 0.500 dia. bolts turned down and screwed to suit the existing hole in the dumb irons. Also we do not want the number plate moved for the purpose of this experiment. The car is at present in the Exptl. garage. Will you please carry out the above work as soon as possible.
