| 86092 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.10.3.33. NEXT TWO EXPERIMENTAL BENSPORT CHASSIS. The D.O. have instructed three 40/50HP. dynamos arranged for vibrator control, two for Bensport i.e. with the shaft drilled for tachometer drive, and one for 40/50HP. Will you please arrange for the next two Bensport chassis to be built up in the Experimental Dept. to be fitted with these vibrator control dynamos and C.A.V. vibrator units. The switch boxes have already been instructed in D.Sch.585, but it will be required to make two more sets for the Bensport chassis. The vibrator units should be made up in the same way as those fitted to 3.Per.II., 19-EX., and Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}'s car 58-GN. The regulator units should be mounted horizontally on the front of the dash board. We shall be glad if you will urge the production of these dynamos as speedily as possible, as we particularly wish to standardise this type of dynamo control on 40/50HP. and Bensport as soon as possible.
