X.3317 X.4272 - RE GOSHAWK 11. X.4222 X.4233 X.4244 With reference to the undershield for the engine, Mr. Stent is at present busy on this, and it seems to make a very simple job. We are endeavouring to hold it up somewhat on the same lines as the Buick, which was thought to be very convenient, and satisfactory. With reference to the half time wheelcase for production chassis, this Mr. Jenner hopes to send you tomorrow. You will remember that you have already received a temporary one for the present chassis suitable for the conversion of the combined spring drive into a separate spring drive and damper flywheel.
