Rubber Engine Mounting - Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}'s Car. The rear cross member of Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}'s car appears to have twisted. We are therefore anxious to get the 20/25 Bumper chassis going in order to reproduce the trouble. If we could get the cross member from 5-B-IV now in the shop we could do some static deflection tests which might give us some more information.
