PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) DASHBOARD. With reference to the suggestion to make the Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) dashboard into a pressing, we are entirely in favour of this, as we understand it is a definite economy, and will probably result in more accurate dashboards. Before taking any steps however we think we should await the result of the inspection of a Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) car by Sales, the object of which is to confirm that the present dashboard is sufficiently wide. As soon as this has been done we propose to send you a scheme for the new dashboard. DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
