| 800b. HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/R.13.12.36. 3.B.50 SPECIFICATION. The body for the 3.B.50 chassis is very much ahead of the body for 10.B.V. This being so, we should like an endeavour to be made to complete 3.B.50 chassis before 10.B.V. In order to make this possible, we are perfectly willing for any bits that are common to the two chassis to be transferred to 3.B.50 in preference to 10.B.V. The outstanding new part required for 3.B.50, which has not previously been instructed, is the new dash-board to PD.309 and PD.315. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
