Re Chassis Nos.18-MC. & 102-MC. Paris Trials Cars. We have fully discussed this matter with EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}, BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} and Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, and we recommend that the best plan would be to fit both of these cars with the .94 pitch Worm and Nut, also with the Steering Column Support. Will EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} please instruct for the necessary parts to be sent to Paris as quickly as possible. 18-MC. has 'D' Steering, and 102-MC. has 'B' Steering. Hm{Capt.
