HEALTH IX.

We send herewith LeC 5064 which shows a layout of the 'P' type seats in conjunction with the pedals, gear lever and the brake lever.

This drawing does not contradict anything shown on LeC 5032, sheet 2, but provides supplementary information. It has been made chiefly to determine the correct positions of such features as the pedals, the brake lever and the gear lever, and also the chassis floor. It has also helped us to determine the position of the steering column relative to the centre line of the car, which dimension is 10 ins.

Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}

Att: LeC 5064.
