The following brief notes cover our conversation with you on our work :- (1) Stromberg Carburetter for the 20/25 and LeC.4883. How soon can we get a model ? (2) Aluminium Balls for the Drain Scheme on this 20/25 system. How soon can we get delivery ? (3) Red SpectreCodename for Phantom III Car. This is wanted by Sales for demonstration work at the end of next week. has we give you anything in the specification which will prevent the car being modified in this time ? (4) Ph.III Clutch - Back Plates and Distortion. Note from Ll.Smith - Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth.6/KW.23.12.35. Can we follow this up and see if there is anything in it. (5) Final Scheme for the Stromberg Carburetter on No.9 unit, which is allotted for 32-EX. It is essential that we should have a check run on this system on the test bed before we put it on the car. We can do this very quickly. (6) Your report on the textolite gears on B-7 unit has made us alarmed about the SpectreCodename for Phantom III textolite gear. We should like exact measurements of increase in backlash on the textolite gear off Hancock's car, No.10 unit, now stripped.
