| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to BJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/M1.12.28. G.4. SPARE WHEEL AT REAR. X5600 (crossed out) X5400 Herewith we send N. scheme 2769. shewing the slight changes that are necessary to N. sch. 2760. to enable one wheel to be carried at the rear instead of two. This will of course be used in conjunction with a luggage grid, but it is possible we shall not be able to get this on the car before it goes away. We think the drawing is self explanatory. This is required for 14-G-4., and N. scheme 2760. for 16-G.4. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
