RE. HEELBOARD - 19-EX. X. 615 X. 7390 Having now set out the wheel arches for this car on N.sch.2716 we find that the heelboard length shewn on N.sch.2714 and 2694 is wrong. We would be glad if you would arrange for the sheet metal heelboard, which should be sent to Hooper's, to be in conformity with the wheel arch clearances on N.sch.2716 and the wing drg.
