| To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to CJ. EJ. c. to RG.{Mr Rowledge} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} EAC.1 CHASSIS. +8920 There were several very important items on this chassis which we never completed. We understood from you that the most important experiment on this car was the control for the rear axle. We are therefore building this car up with practically standard 'V' series pieces except for the frame, springs, axle and propeller shaft. Attached is a brief description of how this is being carried out. The car should be ready for the road in approx. 2 weeks time. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
