| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to SC. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} EPICYCLIC THIRD SPEED GEAR. x7640. x7310 x525 We send herewith N. sch. 2946. shewing the gear lever on the box. It has been set out as before to suit EAC. 7. - 14-EX, the car on which it is intended to be fitted, the positions of the various parts being to the best of our information. We also ask for some slight modifications to the casing to suit the control cylinders. If the car is already fitted with dipping headlamps it will be necessary to dispense with these while this experiment is on. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
