GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) II. FOOTBOARDS.

With reference to the metal work round the Change Gear Mechanism, which is fixed to the footboards, this should always be in two pieces, as our detail has always shown this piece cut, and we specify two piece numbers, one for each part.
