To B.Y. from E.V. copy HE HK.{Col. T. Harker - Sales} X8770 E.V.3 / 12-2-25 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. E.V. | ||
