| -2- Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 1/N.17.2.38 Cont'd. {John DeLooze - Company Secretary} -------------------------- Front Bumper. We have shewn a front bumper which is interchangeable between B.3. and B.50. We understand that it is to be made by Messrs.Wilmot Breedon. As the registered RR. ends are expensive, we have shewn a standard W.B. coiled end, 1.250 dia. The detail of the bumper FB.3613 should be altered to this design before issuing. Headlamps. We have shewn R.100, but P.100 and a modernised edition of the original Bentley lamp will be tried on the mock-up. Horns. These will have to be under the bonnet, due to the forward radiator and high cat-walk. Fog Lamp. A central fog-lamp is not possible with the forward sloping radiator, so two FT.37 lamps are shewn. We are instructing a complete mock-up of the frontal appearance to be made. Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
