Bailey - Chief Engineer} X120. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M28.12.32. PEREGRINE DASHBOARD. With reference to the suggestion to make the Peregrine dashboard into a pressing, we are entirely in favour of this, as we understand it is a definite economy, and will probably result in more accurate dashboards. Before taking any steps however we think we should await the result of the inspection of a Peregrine car by Sales, the object of which is to confirm that the present dashboard is sufficiently wide. As soon as this has been done we propose to send you a scheme for the new dashboard. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
