SCUTTLE ISOLATION. 34.5INS. WIDE DASH. 20/25. HP.
---------------------
We send herewith N.Sch. 3692, shewing the revised scuttle isolation for the latest dashboard as given on N.Sch.3047,

It will be seen that the fixing brackets of the scuttle armature to the subframe have had to be modified, and also the shape of the scuttle face stiffeners.

The potted portion of the dashboard as drawn is that shewn on the latest detail prints, F.57090.

The Park Ward Expl. Limousine, I8.G.4. is having this dashboard fitted and we would like to be assured that the pot on this particular dashboard will be to F.57090. as we are working on that assumption.

There is no need to send to Park Wards any modified scuttle stiffeners or brackets for this car as we have arranged for them to deal with this themselves for this particular car.

In this connection we would point out that we are unable to finish the painting of this body until we receive the bonnet as a shoulder moulding with a fine white line has to be fitted.

This we feel should be done by Park Ward, and we would therefore like to have the bonnet as soon as possible.
