| To By/Cgh.{W Clough} x235 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}8/KW.11.2.35. Bentley Chassis - Pedals. Replying to By/Cgh.{W Clough}8/G.8.2.35, the object of introducing these cantilever pedals is to enable the full rubber engine mounting to be brought in on the Bentley when we are satisfied with it, with the minimum of disturbance to the rest of the chassis. Therefore, whilst we want to get them on to production as soon as we can, we do not think it is worth scrapping material. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
