X.4293 Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} fromBY c. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY4/H27.7.20 X.4163 X.3923 X.4293 CHASSIS RE MODELS MADE TO SHOW RELATIVE PROPORTIONS OF CHASSIS. Referring to LeC.1254 which has just come to hand, has this any relation to the models which are being made with the object of comparing the Buzzard and Vulture with the present 40/50 HP. proportions of Bonnet, Dash and Body etc. I am raising the point because the models are in hand, as you are aware, and if it is proposed to make the models in accordance with the body for 6.EX, new drawings will have to be issued.
