(5) The revised "C" Type Steering is the natural result of progress in coachwork design. Although the wheel has been dropped 1.500 the same leg-room is preserved by moving it back only .750 ins. The present "C" Column is considered by many as being too high.
(6) The wheel carrier to N.Sch.2962.

DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} & E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} are considering what features they have which this car could be made to test‡

We suggest that we dispose of one of our present expl. Phan 2. while it is good stock and buy this.
Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} will discuss this with you on his next visit to Derby.

EV. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork}
