ORIGINAL

Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /Ev {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 1/M13.5.22.

GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11. ACCELERATOR PEDAL. X4267

We send herewith a modified print of N.sch.1256 shewing a stop in both directions for the accelerator pedal. The lightening holes have been reinserted in the dashbracket as we understand that in this car it is possible to make a gastight joint between the scuttle and the floorboards. Will Derby please make a similar scheme for the "D" type pedal.
