Herewith is N.sch. 3516 shewing the revised layout which supersedes N.sch.3477. From this you will be able to order the frame side members, the springs, steering column, and as many of the fittings are unaltered, including the petrol tank, battery suspension, etc, you will be able to go on with those. It also indicates the new position of the engine, which we should be glad if E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} would check as soon as possible. Would you please send us a print of the frame side member as soos as it is ready. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
