Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager}12/JH.3.1.38. WRAITH III - PEDALS. We have now fitted the scheme of modified clutch operating levers to S.C.D.231 and the pedal shaft link to E.X.S.215 and find them satisfactory for preventing pedal movement with the raised front engine mounting. We therefore consider that these schemes should be instructed for the 6 production cars and be fitted to 26.G.VI. car before it goes to France. Will you please urge the details.
