Wyman Please receive herewith :- E.CD.1393 (2 sheets) Exhaust Tail Pipe - Silver Dawn I and 60 also Silver Wraith I and 60. This tail pipe is similar to the B.V. tail pipe E.CD.975 with the modifications necessary to suit the longer rear road springs. The tail pipe rear support is moved 2.500 rearwards along with the body bracket as shown on F.CD.1405. An allowance is made in the length of the tail pipe to make it suitable for the respective types of bodies, the final length in each case being made by coachbuilder prior to fitting chromium plated extension piece. This completes design instructions for Silver Dawn I and Silver Wraith I exhaust systems, and the remaining instructions for the Silver Dawn 60 and Silver Wraith 60 systems will be issued later. Will you please detail and instruct for the experimental cars. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
