In reply to your letter of the 7th inst., (ref. Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /THR3/CB7.7.21) in which you enclose us blue print of D.50050, we regret that we shewed in our drawing a dowel, as we quite understood that the machine was being carried from the driving end bearing bracket. As soon as we receive the shaft and other parts, we shall be able to proceed with the completion of the starter motor. | ||
