| 66ba. To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux}1/MH.{M. Huckerby}31.8.39. SILVER PHANTOM. We find on 30.G.VII. that the Bijur elbow for the clutch withdrawal feed fouls the centre floorboard. It appears impracticable to alter the floorboard. Will you please make a scheme showing the bijur elbow in a different position where it will clear the floorboard.
