1012 W/S. Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. to Mr. Finney (Park Ward & Co.) Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/R.30.4.38. ENCLOSED LUGGAGE ACCOMMODATION ON WRAITH LIMOUSINES. We are going ahead forthwith to see if we can get 2" greater depth in the luggage compartment on the Wraith by altering the tank. In the meantime, it should be appreciated that any modification we make will have to be subjected to tests, and it is, therefore, certain that almost the first 300 cars will not have the altered tank.
