RE SPECIAL RADIATOR, BONNET AND DASH TO NEW PROPORTIONS REQUIRED BY R.{Sir Henry Royce} It has been decided that the new proportioned radiator, bonnet and dash, which have been modified on a number of dimensions shall be fitted to 15-EX. instead of 29-CL. Sales suggested 15-EX. as it would be so long before one of the standard cars would be available. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} has agreed, and full instructions have already been issued to produce all the special parts required for the above modification. RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} will see that the parts in question are supplied to the Repair Department, and I understand that the new parts will be available in approximately a week. Repair Dept. should stop work on the above sections, so as not to produce parts which will not be required. We attach list of the parts affected. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
