| x6153. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.7/MA.31.8.34. SECOND SPECTRECodename for Phantom III CHASSIS. As discussed with you we have ordered a complete Philco Radio Set for this car including aerial and all accessory equipment. We wish to confirm that you will arrange for the body to have the aerial installed in the roof before it comes to Derby and we should also like to know from you whether the set can be accomodated in any other position than under the scuttle. We would prefer in order to eliminate as far as possible engine interference for the set to be as far away from the engine as possible. When you are ready for the aerial to be installed in the body we shall be glad if you will inform us and we shall send the same on to the coachbuilders with the necessary lead in wire etc. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
