Re. Alteration to Bonnet and Dash.

We have seen the altered bonnet and dash as fitted to the Second Experimental L.H. Phantom 11 Car, and I understand that W.W. have also seen it.

It has met with approval so that there is now nothing to prevent its standardisation. I assume that this will now commence with N.2 Series and that at the same time the modification will be introduced in connection with carrying the bonnet over the dashboard, which also seems an improvement.
