DEVELOPMENT WORK.

The position on arrival at the Clan Foundry.

This report is divided into five sections:

1. Frames.
2. Shock Dampers.
3. Front Suspension.
4. Rear Suspension.
5. Weighbridge Tests.

Work done since the last monthly report was issued is included, together with suggestions for future development work. No mention of Bumper Tests is made because no tests have been done since I took the job over.
