RE 9 P.K. - Subframe Chassis

We believe that you have now all the necessary information to enable you to complete 'the' modifications to this chassis.
It should have:-
① Wider & higher dash & raised radiator.
② Brackets for subframe.
③ Gutter on dashboard, & drilling for isolation bolts.
④ Special Side levers.
⑤ Special Footboards to suit 3" high floor.
⑥ Lowered Rear Spring.

Re ⑤, we expect Derby to arrange this by using the present dashbrackets & lifting the horizontal boards.
Standard instruments should be supplied to the coachbuilder for all these cars, except where we state otherwise.
