Bentley - 1st and 2nd Moves.

Herewith is N. Sch.4271 which shews the bonnet stripping and wing attachment, suitable for the centrally mounted radiator and wings, and applicable to both moves except for small modifications due to the slightly different position of the bonnet assembly on the frame sides in the second move.

This completes the information as to the first move, and the remaining information as to the second move, viz. the cross in the frame and separately mounted gearbox, is held up for the time being in favour of other work.
