Re: Bumpers for B.50 and B.III. --------------------------------- We send herewith a scheme for the rear bumper for B.50 and B.III. chassis. A print has been handed to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} in order that he may obtain three of these bumpers for 1.B.5. 2.B.5. and 1.B.50 respectively. The bumper has been made capable of being used with Sessions hydraulic jack, having either the original dumb iron attachment or the new anti-slipping square spigot attachment now being designed. Since the dumb iron centres vary with the type of attachment by a small amount, we have shewn in the bumper a slotted hole, in order that the bumper may be used with either type of fixing.
