| H36 DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}6/C.21.6.39. W.A.R.N. File BENTLEY 5. PEDALS. At BY/SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister}'s request we have designed a pedal rubber similar to the sample pad supplied to us. Please receive herewith the following scheme :- F.CD.1421 Detachable Brake and Clutch Pads. As it is known that this type of rubber mounting is not altogether successful, as they are liable to come off in practice, we suggest that they should be fixed in position with Chrysler cement. Please instruct to the Experimental Department. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
