X.6135 C. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} 3. INSTRUMENT PATCH. X.6135. Since J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} 3. is intended to have hydraulic shock dampers controllable from the driving seat a damper indicator will be required in the patch. This will be an oil gauge. While looking round for suitable instruments for the patch we think you should bear this in mind. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
