COPY. X393 C.J. from F.H.R. Copies sent to: Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Na.{Mr Nadin} R18/B9.6.13. Re Vibration on Mr Northey's Car. X.41 If we communicate the substance of this report of Mr Hives to coachbuilders it will soon be lost sight of. Can a suggestion be made on our coachbuilders' drawings which will call the attention of the designer of the body to the fact that the dash and the scuttle should be disconnected from one another and give an illustration of what we mean? I understand that it is desirable in all cars but that it is imperative in double limousines. F.H.R. COPY. | ||
