(7) See F.CD.690 herewith and F.CD.749 mentioned above. 8. Instrument board. (8) Herewith DB.{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}1833. 9. Dashboard Arrgt. (9) See F.CD.651 sent to you for 2.B.50. 10. Revised shape of rear end of frame side member. (10) See F.CD.768 herewith. 11. Revised radiator shell face-back unaltered. (11) No scheme needed. 12. Revised front apron. (12) Scheme to follow. 13. Front Bumper. (13) Scheme to follow. 14. Rear Bumper. (14) Scheme to follow. We suggest that as there are increasingly wider differences between the Long and Short Wheelbase Bentley's that Messrs.Park Ward & Co. who have two dummy chassis, which so far can be used for either model, should take one for the Short Wheelbase and one for the Long. We have already in BY.5/N.19.7.38 brought up-to-date the specification of the Long Wheelbase chassis and this memo treats the Short Wheelbase accordingly. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
