| X4613 BY/Cgh{W Clough}16/N23.7.28 EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} c. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} SCUTTLE ISOLATION. With reference to EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}1/20.7.28, we propose to arrange for the patterns to be altered in accordance with N.Sch.2660 for the cast type dash to be fitted to the next two India Chassis. We will arrange to indicate on our Chassis prints for this type of Chassis that a strip of sponge rubber is to be inserted between the scuttle face and the dash on the lines you have suggested. We will also arrange for similar information to be added to our Chassis prints for the 40/50 HP when we introduce the Semi-Isolation Scheme along with the Cast Dash on G.2.B. Series.
