| 2. BYL/N.7.3.30 Continued. (c) American bumper fittings not available. (d) Backing and Stop light switches not incorporated, former not designed, latter instructed for trial on our chassis. (e) Fuel gauge graduated in American gallon. (f) Speedometer of American type. (3) Points not clear:- (a) Will first chassis be fitted with English made body without subframe, to me this seems essential for testing out if America insist on deleting the subframe from their list. (b) Are you in agreement with my policy of producing the first chassis as above to let Experimental Dept. get ahead with testing out the main issue. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
