| X6704 To EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. Wer. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E.4/HP.18.11.33. re Vulture Body. We send you herewith a blueprint of your drawing EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}E.105 marked up to show proposed position of steering column and accelerator pedal. In the meantime we are setting out a design for all the pedals full scale as this will be necessary for the shops in erecting the chassis, and we are not yet satisfied from our quarter scale arrangement that there is sufficient distance between the clutch pedal, or brake pedal and the steering wheel although this is greater than on the F.type J.S. steering.
