HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/Mr.Steel [struck through] 400b. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}18/G.4.10.38. S.B.5. STARTING HANDLE AND CENTRE LAMP BRACKET. To deal with the flexibility of the centre lamp support, using the bracket now existing, we suggest that the channel section should be boxed in, on the lines of F.CD.927 herewith. A more easily produced scheme to obtain the same results in future, will be issued shortly. No details are required, HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/Mr.Steel will modify the existing part from this scheme. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
