re Bentley Rear Engine Mounting.

We send you herewith blueprint:

LeC.3845 shewing the rear of the engine rubber mounted from the gearbox crossmember.

To get a quick test of this we have made the minimum amount of modifications to any of the existing pieces, hence the somewhat crude look of some of the brackets.

The position of the rubber from the centre line of the transmission is the same as the Terraplane.
