| To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} X832 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.11/KW.25.3.35. Auto-Lock Shock Dampers. In view of the fact that there will need to be rather a large programme with these dampers for SpectreCodename for Phantom III, we are quite ready for the Dubonnet Auto-Lock damper parts, which you are about to produce to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 1739 to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 1747 inclusive, to be cancelled. We hope this will give a better chance to the other more important damper parts. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. | ||
