| To DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} [Handwritten, crossed out] X7220 [Handwritten, crossed out] X7770 [Handwritten] X7220 X7430 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/LG14.5.27. EAC-7. The outstanding portions of this car which require attention are - the steering and the stiffening of the rear brake drums. With reference to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}4/M9.5.27. We have no difficulty to fit up the fan close to the radiator experimentally, what we wanted was something which could be tried out with a view to standardisation in the case of complaints. We send you a print of the way we have dealt with the matter. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
