(2) Date when the chassis will be handed to test. 9.6.28. (3) Cost of scrapped material, if any. £17 approx. (4) Cost of jigs and tools. £25. Will have to run on to 10,000 miles before coming on to production. This is to be used lever from 'C.T.' on II c.y. instead of previously substituted lever. There is a great saving as the old steering arms require to be hand forged. EHH to be cut on hand not issued from stores.
