| X7005 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rnl/LG13.4.29. RUBBER ENGINE FEET. We have been considering rubber engine feet to LeC.2649/50. As you are aware we have been running experimental cars without the distance bush F.80457 in the feet. On further consideration we think it would be unwise to remove this bush as it is a specific part of the WW. design. We will give you the length of the bush when we have carried out one or two tests on it. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} F80851. | ||
