| To Hm.{Capt. W. Hallam - Head Repairs} from EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} c. LP.{Mr Lappin} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/HP.11.7.34. re Car for LP.{Mr Lappin} We understand that this car is fitted with a dropped front crossmember and an extra crossmember between the lamp standards but underneath the apron. It will be necessary, therefore, to inform the coachbuilders that standard front wings should not be used but that the new pattern in which the wings pass over the frame will have to be fitted. The standard wings can be used but the portion over the frame will have to be added. EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
