To Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} +8370 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}1/LG30.8.28. We have examined the swinging arm with the alteration so as to adapt it to existing Phantom Sch.R.1955. We are of the opinion that the scheme is very good and recommend that it should be fitted when necessary. We should, however, before issuing a std.sheet, like to see it fitted to a car. We are returning the sample arm and should be obliged if you will fit same and notify us for our inspection. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/G.W.Hancock. | ||
