RE : BONNET SHUTTERS X.1085. Further to our Ev {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 1/26.6.31, re the above, after a discussion with Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} we would like you to radius the edge of the shutter end plate around the hole, thus - SEE ORIGINAL FOR SKETCH An alternative suggestion is to actually turn the metal in, thus - SEE ORIGINAL FOR SKETCH This, we feel would be expensive as it makes a pressing of the side panel. In the .080 material it would be difficult, and still more so with the rivetless bonnet using .104 material, or even .116" Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
