| x6135 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. c. to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.2/MA.27.7.33. BENSPORT CHASSIS No.2.B.IV. The electrical system on this chassis should be brought up-to-date to existing Bensport production standard with the exception of the starter motor which should have the latest expl. modification to drgs.DB{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}361/2 and the modified Bijur drive to drg.DB{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}367. With regard to the instrument patch we should like to incorporate the ignition red warning lamp at the bottom of the patch instead of the top of the patch (as on 1.B.IV.) where it cannot be seen. We have asked E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} to look into this and instruct accordingly. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
