| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} x 200/4 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Std.1/KW.22.10.35. Radiator - Chassis 6-B-IV. The dashboard which has been fitted to this car in connection with the noise insulation scheme has no provision for a double tie rod from radiator to dash such as was used in the case of 5-B-IV. However, this is an advantage as we find that the double tie rod causes radiator movement. 6-B-IV can therefore be fitted with a single tie rod as standard Bentley production.
