| Y.5800 Extract from Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/Evl/M7.11.28. We have instructed the following:- 12-G4. BARKERLITE COUPE. That this car be fitted with fixed lamps RB.{R. Bowen}70 type, and a central 3rd. lamp (Stephan Grebel) permanently dipped and twisted - see N. Scheme 2656. We therefore do not understand your reference to this car being fitted with pneumatically operated Lucas dippers. 14-G4. HOOPER SEDANCA. That a set of the latest Lucas electrically dipping reflector ordinary lamps (presumably R.160S type you mention) should be fitted to this car. | ||
