You have done the rear engine mounting for this car for us in the shop. In pursuance of our policy of keeping the Bentley up to date without worrying the Design people, we shall be glad if you would see whether you can adapt the front engine mounting as fitted to 20-G-IV to this car, and also adapt the Cantilever pedal scheme which the Design people have given us for the 20/25 to the streamlined car. Please let us know if there are any difficulties in doing this. B-23-AE is at your disposal for the job. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
