COPY TO SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}+
HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} BENSPORT FRONT FLOOR. B.3.

We send herewith N.sch. 3608. shewing the
modified plate on the sloping floorboard of N.sch. 3563
necessitated by the change to the J.L. engine. For
all other particulars N.sch. 3563 still applies.

We also send herewith N.sch. 3609 shewing a
layout of the gearbox and clutch casing shewn in
elevation in the chassis in conjunction with the floor
and body. The position on the gearbox is that already
given to you by a memo.

The body shewn is that which we shall deliver
to you for the first two cars and has been taken from
the coachbuilder's full size drawing.

We believe that we have now completed the
instructions for the floor supplied with the chassis.
