[Title] GOSHAWK PETROL TANK.

In view of the modifications to the Goshawk Exhaust System, instructed by Mr Royce, we have altered "N" Scheme 644 to shew a modified gash to clear the swan neck pipe. This is shewn on the two fresh prints attached hereto. There are also shewn, two slight modifications to the tail lamp bracket, and thw wiring tube and plug, but the two latter are gone into more in detail on "N" Scheme 730, which also illustrates the position of the tail lamp, number plate, number plate bracket, luggage grid carrier and stay. These details may also be proceeded with.
