| +342 To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} C. to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/W.Bell. SpectreCodename for Phantom III Front Shock Damper Tests. We are still very keen that W. Bell should have a complete SpectreCodename for Phantom III spring box unit with damper, as asked for in our Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.4/KW.14.9.34. We also require the adaptor Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1500, for checking the dampers without the road springs, asked for in the same memo. Although these parts may have been held up owing to the constant change in design, we shall be thankful to be testing the shock dampers exactly similar to those on SpectreCodename for Phantom III I.
