RE. "STORK" FRAME. X 3954
DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}3/M16.9.22.
We send you herewith N.sch. 1324 showing the front end of the frame in the final form in which we should like it to be for "Stork".
It may not exactly agree with the alterations that you are able to make on the existing frames, but if new dies are ordered for "Stork" we should like the frame to be of this shape.
DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}
