| RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. 86116 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.2/MA.9.1.36. Will you please have fitted to the Bentley bump chassis rig a pair of Lucas P.100 headlamps returned from Sales Dept., afterhaving caused a blackout on a trials car. We wish these headlamps to be wired in the normal way to a battery and 24 ampere fuse in order that we can determine whether there is anything wrong with the lamps when subjected to vibration.
