SUBFRAMES - N.2 SERIES. BY2/G.25.6.30.

We are not yet in a position to standardise the universal type subframe. We have not yet fitted the first one on a chassis.

If it is necessary to carry out a 10,000 miles test before standardisation it would appear necessary to order sufficient of the old type to tide production over until the 10,000 miles test is completed.
