| YSV30 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C. Wot. [Struck through] BY16/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} 3.6.27. MODIFIED SEATING POSITION FOR STANDARD "D" TYPE CARS. -BY/HEB.{H. Biraben} has issued a scheme by which the seating and the steering wheel on "D" position have been brought nearer to the pedals. Sales are very anxious to have a car fitted up in this manner for them to try. Can you inform Sales direct when the car in question will be available? It appears to me that after the parts have been completed they can be fitted to a chassis. It need not be an experimental car to which the parts are fitted. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
