| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to AHC (1 print) c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to TS c. to EFC. X.3633 Dal/CB24.2.21. X.3923 RE. 6.EX SPARE WHEEL CARRIER. X.3633 The present spare wheel carrier of this car is not very satisfactory, as it is rather difficult to get the wheel out. We therefore wish to modify it before the car goes down to Mr. Royce, and we accordingly send two blue prints on "N" scheme 770 shewing the provision of about four new small pieces, in order to make this wheel facile. Could you put details into the Shop as quickly as possible, so that Mr. Coverley can get this alteration on immediately. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
