Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/BAG. 750 (handwritten) Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/JD.{J. Draper - Frames}19/AT.30.4.41. MYTH Steering Column. -------------------- We attach to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH's copy the original of PL.635 - Steering Column Support on Scuttle. The above scheme shows a method of anchoring the steering column to the body on the scuttle. The tie bars are the same as used on the Lt.Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} Silver Wraith SO. We have shown a method of attachment to the scuttle, but it must not be regarded as final. We expect Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/BAG. to produce this fixing to suit the scuttle design.
