To Bkl. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}
Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/MH.{M. Huckerby}20.4.39.

Replying to Bkl.12/12.4.39, we consider that the following features of the Bentley V chassis could with advantage be illustrated:-

Piston
Front Suspension
Gearbox
Duplex Prop. Shaft
Frame
Brake Drums
Engine Mounting
Jacking System.

Actually, the last three only if you want a lot of illustrations.

We attach a specification.
