Re: 20 HP. Chassis - Headlamps. You will remember that in Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/M/7.6.28. under the heading of "20 HP. Chassis - Modified Radiator Bonnet and Dash", we agreed to the introduction of the improvements on the second half of 'N' subject to usual formalities regarding Standardisation Sheet, and we mentioned therein that we should like the improved position of headlamps to come in at the same time. You subsequently sent us drawings of the headlamp position and advised us in BY/Pgh7/G2.7.28. that you were fitting up the lamps in this position on R's car. We have now seen this and approve the position. This therefore means that we should like this improved position of lamps to commence on the second half of 'N' with the other modifications. Confirmation that this is clear and that it will be arranged, will oblige. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
