- 3 - BY7/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} 21.4.26. requires modification, a matter we have not looked into, but possibly you will, we would like to have the information early. 11. Front Shock Absorbers. ------------------- We have no information, but are assuming that the existing type are to be used. We may have to shorten the connecting links. 12. Instrument Board. ---------------- No information received. Please let us know what is intended. 13. Horn & Fittings. ---------------- If this is to be the same as EAC.VIII. we can get on with it and instruct. Would like confirmation, as this depends on the type of dashboard used. 14. Wiring & Fittings. Section 7350. --------------------------------- If you have any special views on this, please let us know. In the meantime, we propose to go ahead similar to EAC.VIII. 15. Spare wheel Carriers. --------------------- We are under the impression Mr. Royce intends at least one spare wheel carried at the rear. If one is carried on the side and one at the rear, we assume that the double brackets type will be used for the side position, but we shall of course require a design for the rear. BY.{R.W.
