Childs} By/RD. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}10/N.29.6.39. Re: Heater for Silver Dawn - 32.G.Vll. You will have seen from a copy of a letter to Park Wards that Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} wants this car fitted with a single heater to heat both compartments, similar to that rigged up by Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. on a Wraith III. Will you please get out a rough scheme of what you want and discuss it with us, so that without delay we can supply the necessary heater and fittings to Park Ward and arrange for them to provide the ducts required.
