Of the various schemes which have been got out by Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} and Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} curing this trouble, the one we are most anxious to try is that of Single point body mounting at the rear.

We do not suggest that the other schemes are not promising but our tests up to date lead us to expect the greatest improvement from the body mounting.

We should therefore be obliged if you can let us have the sketches to work to as soon as possible.
