Dear Ward, Confirming our telephone conversation today, Green and Hewitt will be visiting you on Friday. The following is a list of the outstanding points which I can call to mind, in which you are interested and which they may discuss with you. I am putting them down as I think of them and not necessarily in order of urgency: 1. Date for the completion of the Ripplet body. 2. Have we sent the remaining pieces, which we promised, to Wilmot Breedon? 3. We want a drawing showing how we are going to put the spare wheel at the back of the standard B.V. body that we are putting on the Rippletto. 4. We have got to check over the faults on Lp{Mr Lappin}'s car and see what we can do to get them right. 5. We have got to find some means of getting a rexine as good as Rovers use. 6. We have got to get a specification out for front seats. (Bucket and tubular.) 7. We have got to complete the rationalising of the limousine bodies. 8. Complete detail drawings of the B.V. body are required. 9. Weight analysis of the B.V. body is required. 10. We have got to get a price for a tool and part off cost of a spare wheel cover for the Pressed Steel wheel on the side. 11. We have got to get some drawings out of what we want to do to the coupe to reproduce our Experimental results, and discuss them with you. - Continued - | ||
